Y y-coordinates: vector or matrix.
Z z-coordinates: vector or matrix.
levels Contour levels: scalar or vector.
LineSpec Line style and color
ax a scalar graphics object value: parent container, specified as a axes.

📄Description

contour3(Z) generates a 3-D contour plot illustrating the isolines of the matrix Z, where Z represents heights on the x-y plane.

The x and y coordinates in the plane correspond to the column and row indices of Z, respectively.

To specify the x and y coordinates for Z values, use contour3(X,Y,Z).

💡Examples
f = figure();
[X,Y,Z] = sphere(50);
[M, C ]= contour3(X,Y,Z);
C.LineWidth = 3;
