The contour functions create, display, and label isolines determined by one or more matrices.

Function
 Description
clabel

contour

 Displays 2-D isolines generated from values given by a matrix Z.
contour3

 Displays 3-D isolines generated from values given by a matrix Z.
contourf

 Displays a 2-D contour plot and fills the area between the isolines with a solid color.
contourc

 Low-level function to calculate the contour matrix used by the other contour functions.

Two other functions also create contours. meshc displays a contour in addition to a mesh, and surfc displays a contour in addition to a surface.
