function shading(arg1, arg2)
%SHADING Color shading mode.
%   SHADING controls the color shading of SURFACE and PATCH objects.
%   SURFACE and PATCH objects are created by the functions SURF, MESH,
%   PCOLOR, FILL, and FILL3. 
%
%   SHADING FLAT sets the shading of the current graph to flat.
%   SHADING INTERP sets the shading to interpolated.
%   SHADING FACETED sets the shading to faceted, which is the default.
%
%   Flat shading is piecewise constant; each mesh line segment or
%   surface patch has a constant color determined by the color value
%   at the end point of the segment or the corner of the patch which
%   has the smallest index or indices.
%
%   Interpolated shading, which is also known as Gouraud shading, is
%   piecewise bilinear; the color in each segment or patch varies linearly
%   and interpolates the end or corner values.
%
%   Faceted shading is flat shading with superimposed black mesh lines.
%   This is often the most effective and is the default.
%
%   SHADING(AX,...) uses axes AX instead of the current axes.
%
%   SHADING is an M-file that sets the EdgeColor and FaceColor properties
%   of all SURFACE objects in the current axes. It sets them to the
%   correct values that depend upon whether the SURFACE objects are
%   representing meshes or surfaces.
%
%   See also HIDDEN, SURF, MESH, PCOLOR, FILL, FILL3, SURFACE, PATCH.
