Graphics challenge

When I teach the MATLAB graphics class for new technical support engineers at MathWorks, I have one major exercise for them to do. This is that exercise.

This is a good exercise that involved a lot of skills:

Lines only have one color
Using NaN in plotting
Using SET
Using convenince functions like XLIM
Difference between PLOT and LINE
Setting callbacks like WindowButtonMotionFcn
Managing state
Using currentpoint property of an axis
Using a create function and an update function
Choosing good architecture to simplify implementation

There is a lot going on in this example, I believe that if someone can accomplish this exercise on their own, in a clean, well formated manner, they are well versed for many graphics challenges in MATLAB. In up coming posts, I will show my solution to this, and point to older videos that give the basic skills that build up to this challenge.
