## @deftypefnx {} {} stem (@var{x}, @var{y})

## Plot a 2-D stem graph.
##
## If only one argument is given, it is taken as the y-values and the
## x-coordinates are taken from the indices of the elements.
##
## If @var{y} is a matrix, then each column of the matrix is plotted as
## a separate stem graph.  In this case @var{x} can either be a vector,
## the same length as the number of rows in @var{y}, or it can be a
## matrix of the same size as @var{y}.
##
## The default color is @qcode{"b"} (blue), the default line style is
## @qcode{"-"}, and the default marker is @qcode{"o"}.  The line style can
## be altered by the @code{linespec} argument in the same manner as the
## @code{plot} command.  If the @qcode{"filled"} argument is present the
## markers at the top of the stems will be filled in.  For example,
##
## @example
## @group
## x = 1:10;
## y = 2*x;
## stem (x, y, "r");
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## plots 10 stems with heights from 2 to 20 in red;
##
## Optional property/value pairs may be specified to control the appearance
## of the plot.
##
## 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 return value @var{h} is a handle to a @nospell{"stem series"}
## hggroup.  The single hggroup handle has all of the graphical elements
## comprising the plot as its children; This allows the properties of
## multiple graphics objects to be changed by modifying just a single
## property of the @nospell{"stem series"} hggroup.
##
## For example,
##
## @example
## @group
## x = [0:10]';
## y = [sin(x), cos(x)]
## h = stem (x, y);
## set (h(2), "color", "g");
## set (h(1), "basevalue", -1)
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## changes the color of the second @nospell{"stem series"} and moves the base
## line of the first.
##
## Stem Series Properties
##
## @table @asis
## @item linestyle
## The linestyle of the stem.  (Default: @qcode{"-"})
##
## @item linewidth
## The width of the stem.  (Default: 0.5)
##
## @item color
## The color of the stem, and if not separately specified, the marker.
## (Default: @qcode{"b"} [blue])
##
## @item marker
## The marker symbol to use at the top of each stem.  (Default: @qcode{"o"})
##
## @item markeredgecolor
## The edge color of the marker.  (Default: @qcode{"color"} property)
##
## @item markerfacecolor
## The color to use for @nospell{"filling"} the marker.
## (Default: @qcode{"none"} [unfilled])
##
## @item markersize
## The size of the marker.  (Default: 6)
##
## @item baseline
## The handle of the line object which implements the baseline.  Use @code{set}
## with the returned handle to change graphic properties of the baseline.
##
## @item basevalue
## The y-value where the baseline is drawn.  (Default: 0)
## @end table
## @seealso{stem3, bar, hist, plot, stairs}
## @end deftypefn
