Document Summary

In matlab the plotting information is organized in a hierarchical way: figure object. Basic plotting object, can contain a number of different objects: axes object. Contained inside the figure think of the axes as being layered on top of the figure window the axes also can contain a number of different objects: plot object. Object properties are special values associated with an object that control some aspects of how that object behaves. Each property has a property name (usually a string) and an associated value. When object is created all of its properties are automatically initialized to the default values. Plotting procedure: when plot function is invoked matlab automatically creates. Draws the graph (plot) on the axis: matlab uses default values for many of the plot object properties. For example the first line drawn is always blue unless the user specifically changes it. Object handles: a handle is a nickname given to an object matlab.
