Description
line creates a line object in the current axes with default values x = [0 1] and y = [0 1]. You can specify the color, width, line style, and marker type, as well as other characteristics.
The line function has two forms:
?Automatic color and line style cycling. When you specify multiple line coordinate data as a column array using the informal syntax
(i.e., the first three arguments are interpreted as the
coordinates),
line(X,Y,Z)
MATLAB cycles through the axes ColorOrder and LineStyleOrder
property values the way the plot function does. However, unlike plot, line does not call the newplot function.
?Purely low-level behavior. When you call line with only property name/property value pairs,
line('XData',x,'YData',y,'ZData',z)
