x (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
A vector containing the x coordinates at which the function is evaluated.
y (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
A vector containing the y coordinates at which the function is evaluated.
z (PLFLT_MATRIX(3plplot), input)
A matrix containing function values to plot. Should have dimensions of nx by ny.
nx (PLINT(3plplot), input)
Number of x values at which function is evaluated.
ny (PLINT(3plplot), input)
Number of y values at which function is evaluated.
opt (PLINT(3plplot), 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 surface is colored according to the intensity of the
reflected light in the surface from a light source whose position is set using
pllightsource(3plplot).
clevel (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
A vector containing the contour levels.
nlevel (PLINT(3plplot), input)
Number of elements in the clevel vector.
indexxmin (PLINT(3plplot), input)
The index value (which must be ≥ 0) that corresponds to the first x index where z is defined.
indexxmax (PLINT(3plplot), input)
The index value (which must be ≤ nx) which corresponds (by convention) to one more than the last x
index value where z is defined.
indexymin (PLINT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
A vector containing the y index values which all must be ≥ 0. These values are the first y index
where z is defined for a particular x index in the range from indexxmin to indexxmax-1. The
dimension of indexymin is indexxmax.
indexymax (PLINT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
A vector containing the y index values which all must be ≤ ny. These values correspond (by
convention) to one more than the last y index where z is defined for a particular x index in the
range from indexxmin to indexxmax-1. The dimension of indexymax is indexxmax.
