# Usage

Given a set of monotonically increasing `x` coordinates and a corresponding set of `y` values, performs simple linear interpolation to a new set of `x` coordinates. The general syntax for its usage is

       zi = interp2(z,xi,yi)

where `xi` and `yi` are vectors of the same length. The output vector `zi` is the same size as the input vector `xi`. For each element of `xi`, the values in `zi` are linearly interpolated by default. Interpolation method can be selected as:

       zi = interp2(z,xi,yi,method)

Default interpolation method is `'linear'`. Other methods are `'nearest'`, and `'cubic'`. For values in `xi, yi` that are outside the size of `z`, the default value returned is NaN. To change this behavior, you can specify the extrapolation value:

       zi = interp2(z,xi,yi,method,extrapval)

The `z` and `xi,yi` vectors must be real, although complex types are allowed for `z`.
