## @deftypefn {Function File} {} plot3 (@var{args})
## Produce three-dimensional plots.  Many different combinations of
## arguments are possible.  The simplest form is
##
## @example
## plot3 (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{z})
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## in which the arguments are taken to be the vertices of the points to
## be plotted in three dimensions. If all arguments are vectors of the
## same length, then a single continuous line is drawn. If all arguments
## are matrices, then each column of the matrices is treated as a
## separate line.  No attempt is made to transpose the arguments to make
## the number of rows match.
##
## If only two arguments are given, as
##
## @example
## plot3 (@var{x}, @var{c})
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## the real and imaginary parts of the second argument are used
## as the @var{y} and @var{z} coordinates, respectively.
##
## If only one argument is given, as
##
## @example
## plot3 (@var{c})
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## the real and imaginary parts of the argument are used as the @var{y}
## and @var{z} values, and they are plotted versus their index.
##
## Arguments may also be given in groups of three as
##
## @example
## plot3 (@var{x1}, @var{y1}, @var{z1}, @var{x2}, @var{y2}, @var{z2}, @dots{})
## @end example
## 
## @noindent
## in which each set of three arguments is treated as a separate line or
## set of lines in three dimensions.
##
## To plot multiple one- or two-argument groups, separate each group
## with an empty format string, as
##
## @example
## plot3 (@var{x1}, @var{c1}, "", @var{c2}, "", @dots{})
## @end example
##
## An example of the use of @code{plot3} is
##
## @example
## @group
##    z = [0:0.05:5];
##    plot3 (cos(2*pi*z), sin(2*pi*z), z, ";helix;");
##    plot3 (z, exp(2i*pi*z), ";complex sinusoid;");
## @end group
## @end example
## @seealso{plot}
## @end deftypefn
