DIRECTEDPLOT Plot with directions

DIRECTEDPLOT(X,Y) plots vector Y versus vector X, with arrows on alternative points. If X or Y is a matrix, then the vector is plotted versus the rows or columns of the matrix,whichever line up.

DIRECTEDPLOT(X,Y,N) places arrows on each N-th point, starting from the first.

DIRECTEDPLOT(X,Y,N,LINESPEC) uses the plot linestyle specified for the plots and the arrows. See PLOT for other possibilities.

[H1,H2] = DIRECTEDPLOT(...) also returns the handles for the plot and the arrows

Example:
x = linspace(0,2*pi,10)';
y = [cos(x) sin(x)];
[h1,h2] = directedplot(x,y);
axis equal
