💅 NAME 💅

plfill3 — draw a filled polygon in 3D, bestie. That's it. That's the whole vibe. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

plfill3(n, x, y, z)

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so picture this: you've got a 3D polygon, right? plfill3 fills it in. The polygon is defined by the n points sitting in the x, y, and z vectors, and the fill pattern is whatever plpsty(3plplot) or plpat(3plplot) decided, no cap. 🎨

And the way it just handles the closing for you?? Iconic. It automatically closes the polygon between the last and first vertices, so you literally don't have to lift a finger. 🫶

Also lowkey obsessed with this: if you pass multiple closed polygons in x, y, and z, then plfill3(3plplot) will fill in between them. Multiple polygons, one call, main character energy fr fr. 🔥

Redacted form: General: plfill3(x, y, z)

This function is used in example 15. Go look at it, iykyk. 👑

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • n (PLINT(3plplot), input) — the number of vertices in the polygon. Like, how many points are we talking here. 🔢
  • x (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input) — a vector containing the x coordinates of the vertices. 💖
  • y (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input) — a vector containing the y coordinates of the vertices. 💖
  • z (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input) — a vector containing the z coordinates of the vertices. 💖
Yes bestie, all three coordinate vectors are input only. Nobody's out here writing to your arrays. Respectfully. 🙈
