 Finally, the program produces graphical output that we can visualize. Here is
 a plot of the results:

+The program also works for 1d curves in 2d, not just 2d surfaces in 3d. You
+can test this by changing the template argument in <code>main()</code> like

+The domain is a curve in 2d, and we can visualize the solution by using the
+third dimension (and color) to denote the value of the function $u(x)$. This
+then looks like so:
