I have to following problems with my plotting problems:


my matrix is as follows :

x y z
[ ]
its approx 100 rows...


When i try to plot the surface... The following image occurs, does the matrix need ot be sorted or somehting?

It should be a plane...
Thanks.

what command are you using to plot?

also, what are the dimensions of your matrix that you are plotting?

the matrix is between 100 & 1000 rows * 3 (x , y, z)


Im using the surf command...

Does the matrix need to be in some kind of order?... It is a perfect plane when i use plots and display circles... using 'o'
