## Create a 2-D contour plot with filled intervals.
##
## Plot level curves (contour lines) of the matrix @var{z} and fill the region
## between lines with colors from the current colormap.
##
## The level curves are taken from the contour matrix @var{c} computed by
## @code{contourc} for the same arguments; see the latter for their
## interpretation.
##
## The appearance of contour lines can be defined with a line style @var{style}
## in the same manner as @code{plot}.  Only line style and color are used;
## Any markers defined by @var{style} are ignored.
##
## If the first argument @var{hax} is an axes handle, then plot into this axis,
## rather than the current axes returned by @code{gca}.
##
## The optional output @var{c} are the contour levels in @code{contourc} format.
##
## The optional return value @var{h} is a graphics handle to the hggroup
## comprising the contour lines.
##
## The following example plots filled contours of the @code{peaks} function.
##
## @example
## @group
## [x, y, z] = peaks (50);
## contourf (x, y, z, -7:9)
## @end group
