如何使用Matlab绘制这些3D形状？

Question

I am trying to use Matlab to create these 3D shapes for illustration purpose (Please see the image below). I think surf is the function I should use; however, haven't got a clue what are the functions I should use to represent these shapes. Anyone can suggest an example please? Thanks.

A.

Edit 1:

Thanks for the replies from Trogdor and PetrH.

Currently, I am trying to plot a shape that is more sharp. For example, z = x.^2 + y.^2; can plot a normal cup shape. However, I want to plot something like the subplot on the right hand side shown below. Tried several different function but not working. Thanks for any tips!

Edit 2:

Use z = x.^2 -4*x+ y.^2-4*y; can make the shape more flat. Still haven't got a method to make it sharp.

Answer 1

You can use meshgrid to generate x and y matrices to plug into az function. For example:

[x,y] = meshgrid(-10:10);
z = x.^2 + y.^2;
figure;surf(z);

will generate a plot similar to the first figure. The second figure is the same thing, but defining z as:

z = y.^2;

And so on.

EDIT: The third figure is a saddle, found using

z = x.^2 - y.^2;

Thanks to PetrH for pointing that out.

The 4th and fifth are inversions of the first two.

z = -x.^2;
z = -x.^2 - y.^2;
