Dear Vikash<br>
<br>
Scilab talking. <br>
<br>
try to use plot3d(x,y,z), z being a matrix (as opposed to vector)<br>
<br>
you can build from this working example:<br>
<br>
x=(-10:0.13:10)';<br>
t=(0:0.13:20)';<br>
z=(sin((x*t') ./2).^2) ./ (x *x');<br>
p=x *x';<br>
clf, plot3d(x,t,z)<br>
<br>
note the difference between element-wise operations and matricial
operations like x*t'<div><div class="h5"><br>
