Plot using scatter3 function.

Hai friends, I have to plot a graph using scatter3 function. i have 3 variables x,y and z with 24 elements in each. I want 3 variables to be shown in different colors on the plot. How can i do this ? I tried to do this by specifying s and c as explained in help. but could not understand. Thanq-)

Is this what you're looking for?
x = rand(1,24);
y = rand(1,24);
z = rand(1,24);
sz = 40;
colors = jet(24);
scatter3(x, y, z, sz, colors, 'filled')
colorbar('YTick', linspace(0, 1, 24), 'YTickLabel', 1:24)
The key is to create the "colors" variable that represent 24 different colors.

Hai...
I din't want each element to be shown in different colors. I wanted each variable to be shown in different colors on the same graph...plz help.
thanq...
I'm reading through all the responses that you got and your comments, but I still don't understand what you want. When you plot x, y, z (each with 24 elements) using scatter3, you will get 24 points on the plot. When you say "different colors for each variable", how many different colors total do you want? Each point is created by x, y, z coordinates, so you can't have 3 colors for a single point. Maybe you can draw an example with paper and pencil (or a paint program) and show us a screenshot of it.

It takes 3 variables to make a plot in scatter3, but if you mean you have 3 sets of x,y,z parameters then:
figure
hold on
scatter3(x1,y1,z1,'r.')
scatter3(x2,y2,z2,'bo')
scatter3(x3,y3,z3,'^g)
Which correspond to red dots, blue circles, and green upward facing triangles.

I don't have three sets. I have only one set of three variables. I want them to be plotted using scatter3 with different colors for every variable.How can i do this ?
scatter3 uses 3 variables to make a single plot point, there's no way to make each component a different color because each component is not plotted individually.
I had told that i wanted all three variables to be shown in different colors not each element. And the graph should be only one not 3 separate graph for each variable.

scatter3(1:length(x), x, zeros(1,length(x)), 9, 'r');
scatter3(1:length(y), y, zeros(1,length(y)), 9, 'g');
scatter3(1:length(z), z, zeros(1,length(z)), 9, 'b');
The 9 is to use markers with an area of 9 points^2 (a "point" is approximately 1/72 of an inch in this context.)

hai...
thanks for your answer. But i wanted only one graph - not three graphs.
i want every variable to be plotted on the same graph with different color for each variable.
i.e each element of the variable shown in same color. like that 3-variables on the same graph.Plz help...
