I have seen some examples in which mostly MATLABer's have used curve1 and curve2 as an equation. and then using the flip method they shaded the required area between these two curves.

In my case I don't have any equation but a large number of data points. by using simple plot(xdata,ydata) I am ploting these lines. Now my question is how can I shade the areas between two or three lines drawn by plot command.

Are you looking for area, fill, patch?

It works the same way with data points as with functions —

x = linspace(0, 10, 50).'; % Assume Column Vectors

y1 = rand(size(x));

y2 = rand(size(x))+1;

y3 = rand(size(x))+2;

figure

plot(x, y1)

hold on

plot(x, y2)

patch([x; flip(x)], [y1; flip(y2)], 'r', 'EdgeColor','none', 'FaceAlpha',0.5)

patch([x; flip(x)], [y2; flip(y3)], 'g', 'EdgeColor','none', 'FaceAlpha',0.5)

hold off

grid

Most MATLAB data are column vectors, so I am using that convention here. For row vectors, replace the semicolons (;) with commas (,) in the patch calls.

Note that the independent variable vector (‘x’ here) must be monotonically increasing (or decreasing) for patch to work correctly. It cannot be random. If it is random, create a matrix and then sort it:

A = [x(:) y1(:) y2(:)];

As = sortrows(A,1);

xs = As(:,1);

y1s = As(:,2);

y2s = As(:,s);

Then use the sorted vectors as the patch arguments.
