PLPOIN(3plplot) 						    PLplot API							   PLPOIN(3plplot)

NAME

       plpoin - Plot a glyph at the specified points

SYNOPSIS

       plpoin(n, x, y, code)

DESCRIPTION

       Plot  a	glyph  at  the	specified  points.   (This  function is largely superseded by plstring(3plplot) which gives access to many[!] more
       glyphs.) code=-1 means try to just draw a point.  Right now it's just a move and a draw at the same place.  Not ideal, since a sufficiently
       intelligent  output  device  may  optimize  it  away, or there may be faster ways of doing it.  This is OK for now, though, and offers a 4X
       speedup over drawing a Hershey font "point" (which is actually diamond shaped and therefore takes 4 strokes to draw).  If 0 <  code  <  32,
       then  a useful (but small subset) of Hershey symbols is plotted.  If 32 <= code <= 127 the corresponding printable ASCII character is plot-
       ted.

       Redacted form: plpoin(x, y, code)

       This function is used in examples 1,6,14,21,29.

ARGUMENTS

       n (PLINT, input)
	      Number of points in the x and y arrays.

       x (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to an array with X coordinates of points.

       y (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to an array with Y coordinates of points.

       code (PLINT, input)
	      Hershey symbol code (in "ascii-indexed" form with -1 <= code <= 127) corresponding to a glyph to be plotted at each of the n points.

NAME

       plfill3 - Draw filled polygon in 3D

SYNOPSIS

       plfill3(n, x, y, z)

DESCRIPTION

       Fills the 3D polygon defined by the n points in the x, y, and z arrays using the pattern defined by plpsty(3plplot) or plpat(3plplot).  The
       routine will automatically close the polygon between the last and first vertices.  If multiple closed polygons are passed in x,	y,  and  z
       then plfill3(3plplot) will fill in between them.

       Redacted form:  General: plfill3(x, y, z) Perl/PDL: plfill3(n, x, y, z)

       This function is used in example 15.

ARGUMENTS

       n (PLINT, input)
	      Number of vertices in polygon.

       x (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to array with x coordinates of vertices.

       y (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to array with y coordinates of vertices.

       z (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to array with z coordinates of vertices.
