6 plmeshc - Magnitude colored plot surface mesh with contour
7
9 plmeshc(x, y, z, nx, ny, opt, clevel, nlevel)
10
12 A more powerful form of plmesh(3plplot): the surface mesh can be col‐
13 ored accordingly to the current z value being plotted, a contour plot
14 can be drawn at the base XY plane, and a curtain can be drawn between
15 the plotted function border and the base XY plane.
16
17 Redacted form: plmeshc(x, y, z, opt, clevel)
18
19 This function is used in example 11.
20
22 x (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
23 A vector containing the x coordinates at which the function is
24 evaluated.
25
26 y (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
27 A vector containing the y coordinates at which the function is
28 evaluated.
29
30 z (PLFLT_MATRIX(3plplot), input)
31 A matrix containing function values to plot. Should have dimen‐
32 sions of nx by ny.
33
34 nx (PLINT(3plplot), input)
35 Number of x values at which function is evaluated.
36
37 ny (PLINT(3plplot), input)
38 Number of y values at which function is evaluated.
39
40 opt (PLINT(3plplot), input)
41 Determines the way in which the surface is represented. To spec‐
42 ify more than one option just add the options, e.g. DRAW_LINEXY
43 + MAG_COLOR opt=DRAW_LINEX : Lines are drawn showing z as a
44 function of x for each value of y[j] . opt=DRAW_LINEY : Lines
45 are drawn showing z as a function of y for each value of x[i] .
46 opt=DRAW_LINEXY : Network of lines is drawn connecting points at
47 which function is defined. opt=MAG_COLOR : Each line in the
48 mesh is colored according to the z value being plotted. The
49 color is used from the current cmap1. opt=BASE_CONT : A contour
50 plot is drawn at the base XY plane using parameters nlevel and
51 clevel. opt=DRAW_SIDES : draws a curtain between the base XY
52 plane and the borders of the plotted function.
53
54
55 clevel (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
56 A vector containing the contour levels.
57
58 nlevel (PLINT(3plplot), input)
59 Number of elements in the clevel vector.
