PLOT3DC(3plplot)						    PLplot API							  PLOT3DC(3plplot)

NAME
plot3dc - Magnitude colored plot surface with contour. SYNOPSIS
plot3dc(x, y, z, nx, ny, opt, clevel, nlevel) DESCRIPTION
Identical to plot3d but with extra functionalities: the surface mesh can be colored accordingly to the current z value being plotted, a contour plot can be drawn at the base XY plane, and a curtain can be drawn between the plotted function border and the base XY plane. The arguments are identical to plmeshc. The only difference between plmeshc(3plplot) and plot3dc(3plplot) is that plmeshc(3plplot) draws the bottom side of the surface, while plot3dc(3plplot) only draws the surface as viewed from the top. Redacted form: General: plot3dc(x, y, z, opt, clevel) Perl/PDL: Not available? This function is used in example 21. AUTHORS

NAME
plsurf3d - Plot shaded 3-d surface plot SYNOPSIS
plsurf3d(x, y, z, nx, ny, opt, clevel, nlevel) DESCRIPTION
Plots a three dimensional shaded surface plot within the environment set up by plw3d(3plplot). The surface is defined by the two-dimen- sional array z[nx][ny], the point z[i][j] being the value of the function at (x[i], y[j]). Note that the points in arrays x and y do not need to be equally spaced, but must be stored in ascending order. For further details see the PLplot documentation. Redacted form: plsurf3d(x, y, z, opt, clevel) This function is not used in any examples. ARGUMENTS
x (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to set of x coordinate values at which the function is evaluated. y (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to set of y coordinate values at which the function is evaluated. z (PLFLT **, input) Pointer to a vectored two-dimensional array with set of function values. nx (PLINT, input) Number of x values at which function is evaluated. ny (PLINT, input) Number of y values at which function is evaluated. opt (PLINT, input) Determines the way in which the surface is represented. To specify more than one option just add the options, e.g. FACETED + SURF_CONT opt=FACETED: Network of lines is drawn connecting points at which function is defined. opt=BASE_CONT: A contour plot is drawn at the base XY plane using parameters nlevel and clevel. opt=SURF_CONT: A contour plot is drawn at the surface plane using parameters nlevel and clevel. opt=DRAW_SIDES: draws a curtain between the base XY plane and the borders of the plotted function. opt=MAG_COLOR: the surface is colored according to the value of Z; if MAG_COLOR is not used, then the default the surface is colored according to the intensity of the reflected light in the surface from a light source whose position is set using pllight- source(3plplot). clevel (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to the array that defines the contour level spacing. nlevel (PLINT, input) Number of elements in the clevel array.
