% plot3 - 3D plotting Example 
% Author: F.P. Schloerb

% define a set of arrays with x, y, and z coordinates
% this is a 3D spiral
t = 0:1000;
r = 0.01*t;
x = r.*cos(2*pi*t/100);
y = r.*sin(2*pi*t/100);
z = 0.1*t;

% now plot the 3D function using plot3
plot3(x,y,z,'k','LineWidth',2)

% label the plot
xlabel('X')
ylabel('Y')
zlabel('Z')
