I'm having trouble getting contour to plot more than the standard number of contour lines. When I use contour(x, y, z), it plots the contour lines fine, but when I specify the number of lines with contour(x, y, z, n), nothing plots.

I have had this same problem. I added a colorbar. When I don't give an "n" argument, the color bar ranges from 0 - 300, the range of the surface plot. When I add an "n" argument, the colorbar ranges from 0 - 1 in 0.1 intervals. If this is so, it makes sense that nothing is graphed, because the surface never gets as low as 1, but why would adding more contour lines change this? (I also tried plotting less contour lines - same thing happens.) [[User:Smc41|Smc41]] 09:39, 23 September 2009 (EDT) | I have had this same problem. I added a colorbar.
