meshgrid

Cartesian rectangular grid in 2-D or 3-D.

Syntax

• [X, Y] = meshgrid(x, y)
• [X, Y] = meshgrid(x)
• [X, Y, Z] = meshgrid(x, y, z)
• [X, Y, Z] = meshgrid(x)

Input argument

• x - x-coordinates of points: vector
• y - y-coordinates of points: vector
• z - z-coordinates of points: vector

Output argument

• X - x-coordinates over grid: 2-D or 3-D array.
• Y - y-coordinates over grid: 2-D or 3-D array.
• Z - z-coordinates over grid: 3-D array.

Description

meshgrid creates Cartesian rectangular grid in 2-D or 3-D.

Example

x = -1:0.4:1;
y = -1:0.4:1;
[X, Y] = meshgrid(x, y)

x = 0:2:6;
y = 0:1:6;
z = 0:3:6;
[X,Y,Z] = meshgrid(x, y, z)
