Function Synopsis

theAxis = subplot(nrows, ncols, thisPlot)

Help text

SUBPLOT Create axes in tiled positions.
 	SUBPLOT(m,n,p), or SUBPLOT(mnp), breaks the Figure window into
 	an m-by-n matrix of small axes, selects the p-th axes for 
 	for the current plot, and returns the axis handle.  The axes 
	are counted along the top row of the Figure window, then the
	second row, etc.  For example,
 
 	    SUBPLOT(2,1,1), PLOT(income)
 	    SUBPLOT(2,1,2), PLOT(outgo)
 
 	plots income on the top half of the window and outgo on the
	bottom half.
 
 	SUBPLOT(m,n,p), if the axis already exists, makes it current.
	SUBPLOT(H), where H is an axis handle, is another way of making
	an axis current for subsequent plotting commands.

	If a SUBPLOT specification causes a new axis to overlap an
	existing axis, the existing axis is deleted.  For example,
	the statement SUBPLOT(1,1,1) deletes all existing smaller
	axes in the Figure window and creates a new full-figure axis.
