## Plot the surface defined by a function.
##
## @var{f} is a string, inline function, or function handle with two arguments
## defining the function.  By default the plot is over the meshed domain
## @code{-2*pi <= @var{x} | @var{y} <= 2*pi} with 60 points in each dimension.
##
## If three functions are passed, then plot the parametrically defined
## function @code{[@var{fx} (@var{s}, @var{t}), @var{fy} (@var{s}, @var{t}),
## @var{fz} (@var{s}, @var{t})]}.
##
## If @var{dom} is a two element vector, it represents the minimum and maximum
## values of both @var{x} and @var{y}.  If @var{dom} is a four element vector,
## then the minimum and maximum values are @code{[xmin xmax ymin ymax]}.
##
## @var{n} is a scalar defining the number of points to use in each dimension.
##
## If the argument "circ" is given, then the function is plotted over a disk
## centered on the middle of the domain @var{dom}.
##
## If the first argument is an axis handle, @var{hax}, then plot into this
## axis rather than the current axis handle returned by @code{gca}.
##
## The optional return value @var{h} is a graphics handle to the created
## surface object.
##
## Example 1: 2-argument function
##
## @example
## @group
## f = @@(x,y) sqrt (abs (x .* y)) ./ (1 + x.^2 + y.^2);
## ezsurf (f, [-3, 3]);
## @end group
## @end example
##
## Example 2: parametrically defined function
##
## @example
## @group
## fx = @@(s,t) cos (s) .* cos (t);
## fy = @@(s,t) sin (s) .* cos (t);
## fz = @@(s,t) sin (t);
## ezsurf (fx, fy, fz, [-pi, pi, -pi/2, pi/2], 20);
## @end group
