Hi, i have a data, lets say x and y column vectors, and i want to plot the data ccording to a third property represented by column vector z. I want to use for binning and plot a 2D scatter with the color bar showing range of z. please suggest the best way to do so. "Hist" and "scatter" command does not serve this purpose and "binscatter" gives the child of plot what i want, but its color Any help wants to be highly appreciated.

Try this:
Plot some data:
surf(peaks)Change the colormap*:
colormap(jet) Add a colorbar and put a label on it:
cb = colorbar; ylabel(cb,'voltage') Set colorbar limits:
caxis([-8 4]) That'll create this figure:
* But note, there are some perceptual issues with using jet to represent numbers. For those reason's the jet colormap has fallen out of fashion in recent years. Read up on #endrainbow if you're curious to know more.
From the doc:
contourf(Z,v) draws a filled contour plot of matrix Z with contour lines at the data values specified in the monotonically increasing vector v. To display a single contour line at a particular value, define v as a two-element vector with both elements equal to the desired contour level.
Is this not what you want?
