2-D Filled Contour Graph

Display isolines of a surface represented by a matrix and color the regions between the isolines

Plotted Variables

• One variable (Z) -- plot contour lines of the elements of a matrix, interpreting values as heights with respect to the x-y plane. Matrix must be at least 2-by-2.
• Three variables (X,Y,Z) -- X and Y specify x- and y-axis limits.

• length(X) = n and length(Y) = m, where [m,n] = size(Z).

The figure colormap determines the coloring of the filled areas.
