- %PLOT3 Plot lines and points in 3-D space.
- % PLOT3() is a three-dimensional analogue of PLOT().
- %
- % PLOT3(x,y,z), where x, y and z are three vectors of the same length,
- % plots a line in 3-space through the points whose coordinates are the
- % elements of x, y and z.
- %
- % PLOT3(X,Y,Z), where X, Y and Z are three matrices of the same size,
- % plots several lines obtained from the columns of X, Y and Z.
- %
- % Various line types, plot symbols and colors may be obtained with
- % PLOT3(X,Y,Z,s) where s is a 1, 2 or 3 character string made from
- % the characters listed under the PLOT command.
- %
- % PLOT3(x1,y1,z1,s1,x2,y2,z2,s2,x3,y3,z3,s3,...) combines the plots
- % defined by the (x,y,z,s) fourtuples, where the x's, y's and z's are
- % vectors or matrices and the s's are strings.
- %
- % Example: A helix:
- %
- % t = 0:pi/50:10*pi;
- % plot3(sin(t),cos(t),t);
- %
- % PLOT3 returns a column vector of handles to LINE objects, one
- % handle per line. The X,Y,Z triples, or X,Y,Z,S quads, can be
- % followed by parameter/value pairs to specify additional
- % properties of the lines.

- % See also PLOT, LINE, AXIS, VIEW, MESH, SURF.

- %-------------------------------
- % Additional details:
- %
- %
- % If the NextPlot axis property is REPLACE (HOLD is off), PLOT3 resets
- % all axis properties, except Position, to their default values, and
- % deletes all axis children (line, patch, text, surface, and
- % image objects).
