use a real life example of a mountain and create a surface plot code matlab in matlab

Here's an example code in Matlab that shows how to generate a surface plot of a mountain:

main.m
% Define the terrain function
[X,Y] = meshgrid(-3:.05:3);
Z = peaks(X,Y);

% Create a surface plot
figure;
surf(X,Y,Z);
colormap(jet);
shading interp;
view(3);

% Add title and labels
title('Mountain Terrain');
xlabel('X-axis');
ylabel('Y-axis');
zlabel('Z-axis');
265 chars
17 lines

The peaks() function returns a 2D array of heights, which represents a mountain terrain. The surf() function creates a surface plot of this terrain with the given X, Y, and Z coordinates. The colormap() function sets the color map used by the surface plot, and shading interp interpolates the colors between vertices.

The view() function sets the viewpoint for the surface plot, and the title(), xlabel(), ylabel(), and zlabel() functions add a title and axis labels to the plot.

You can customize the terrain function and other properties of the surface plot to fit your specific needs.
