28 ## Plot the surface and contour lines defined by a function. @var{f} is a
29 ## string, inline function or function handle with two arguments defining the
30 ## function. By default the plot is over the domain @code{-2*pi < @var{x} <
31 ## 2*pi} and @code{-2*pi < @var{y} < 2*pi} with 60 points in each dimension.
33 ## If @var{dom} is a two element vector, it represents the minimum and maximum
34 ## value of both @var{x} and @var{y}. If @var{dom} is a four element vector,
35 ## then the minimum and maximum value of @var{x} and @var{y} are specify
38 ## @var{n} is a scalar defining the number of points to use in each dimension.
40 ## If three functions are passed, then plot the parametrically defined
41 ## function @code{[@var{fx} (@var{s}, @var{t}), @var{fy} (@var{s}, @var{t}),
42 ## @var{fz} (@var{s}, @var{t})]}.
44 ## If the argument 'circ' is given, then the function is plotted over a disk
45 ## centered on the middle of the domain @var{dom}.
47 ## The optional return value @var{h} is a 2-element vector with a graphics
48 ## for the created surface plot and a second handle for the created contour
