#### 15.2.5 Multiple Plot Windows

You can open multiple plot windows using the `figure` function. For example,

    figure (1);
    fplot (@sin, [-10, 10]);
    figure (2);
    fplot (@cos, [-10, 10]);

creates two figures, with the first displaying a sine wave and the second a cosine wave. Figure numbers must be positive integers.

Command: figure
Command: figure n
Function File: figure (n)
Function File: figure (…, "property", value, …)
Function File: h = figure (…)

  Create a new figure window for plotting.

  If no arguments are specified, a new figure with the next available number is created.

  If called with an integer n, and no such numbered figure exists, then a new figure with the specified number is created. If the figure already exists then it is made visible and becomes the current figure for plotting.

  Multiple property-value pairs may be specified for the figure object, but they must appear in pairs.

  The optional return value h is a graphics handle to the created figure object.
