%% h = HEXSCATTER( x, y, ... )
% Gordon Bean, February 2014
% A scatter-plot substitute - generate a density plot using hexagonal
% patches.
%
% Syntax
% hexscatter(xdata, ydata)
% hexscatter(xdata, ydata, 'Name', Value, ...)
% h = hexscatter(...)
%
% Description
% hexscatter(xdata, ydata) creates a density plot of the ydata versus the
% xdata using hexagonal tiles. xdata and ydata should be vectors. NaN
% values (and their corresponding values in the other vector) are ignored.
%
% hexscatter(xdata, ydata, 'Name', Value, ...) accepts name-value pairs of
% arguments from the following list (defaults in {}):
%  'xlim' { [min(xdadta(:) max(xdata(:))] } - a 2-element vector containing
%  the lower and upper bounds of the 2nd dimension of the grid.
%  'ylim' { [min(ydadta(:) max(ydata(:))] } - a 2-element vector containing
%  the lower and upper bounds of the 1st dimension of the grid.
%  'res' { 50 } - the resolution, or number of bins in each dimension. The
%  total number of bins will be the resolution squared.
%  'drawEdges' { false } - if true, edges are drawn around each hexagonal
%  patch.
%  'showZeros' { false } - if true, bins with 0 counts are shaded; if
%  false, only bins with non-zero counts are colored. 
% 
% h = hexscatter( ... ) returns the object handle to the patch object
% created.
% 
% Examples
% hexscatter(rand(2000,1), rand(2000,1))
%
% hexscatter(rand(2000,1), rand(2000,1), 'res', 90)
