hi,
I have a plot which contains 6 points. Now i want to smooth the line. How can I do that?
a = 0 1.56809885737654 1.00861433623079

Unfortunately this is not correct. a(:,1) is my x axis, a(:,2) is my y axis. So the line has to go till atleast 5 on the x axis

In that instance, just use the first part of my Answer, that being (with a few tweaks) —
a = [0 1.56809885737654 1.00861433623079

hold on

grid on
xlabel('X')

zlabel('Z')
