NAME
       Surface - A utility for drawing perspective picture of a function of two variables with hidden lines
       removed.


SYNOPSIS
       EZSRFC - Draws a perspective picture of a function of two variables with hidden lines removed. The
       function is approximated by a two-dimensional array of heights. Use EZSRFC only if the entire array is to
       be drawn, the data points are equally spaced in the X-Y plane, there are no stereo pairs, and scaling is
       chosen internally.

       PWRZS - A character-plotting routine for plotting characters in three-space when using SRFACE.

       SETR - Establishes certain constants so that SRFACE produces a picture whose size changes with respect to
       the viewer's distance from the object.  It can also be used when making a movie of an object evolving in
       time to keep it positioned properly on the screen, saving computer time in the bargin.  Call it with r0
       negative to turn off this feature.

       SRFACE - Draws a perspective picture of a function of two variables with hidden lines removed. The
       function is approximated by a two-dimensional array of heights.

ACCESS
       To use Surface routines, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in
       that order.
