ZLABEL Plot Z-axis Label Function

Section: Handle-Based Graphics

Usage

This command adds a label to the z-axis of the plot. The general syntax for its use is 
  zlabel('label')

or in the alternate form 

  zlabel 'label'

or simply 

  zlabel label

Here label is a string variable. You can also specify properties for that label using the syntax 

  zlabel('label',properties...)

Example

Here is an example of a simple plot with a label on the z-axis. 
--> t = linspace(0,5*pi);
--> x = cos(t);
--> y = sin(t);
--> z = t;
--> plot3(x,y,z,'r-');
