function varargout = fillPolygon3d(varargin)
%FILLPOLYGON3D Fill a 3D polygon specified by a list of vertex coords
%
%   fillPolygon3d(COORD, COLOR)
%   packs coordinates in a single [N*3] array.
%   COORD can also be a cell array of polygon, in this case each polygon is
%   drawn using the same color.
%
%   fillPolygon3d(PX, PY, PZ, COLOR)
%   specifies coordinates in separate numeric vectors (either row or
%   columns)
%
%   fillPolygon3d(..., PARAM, VALUE)
%   allows to specify some drawing parameter/value pairs as for the plot
%   function.
%
%   H = fillPolygon3d(...) 
%   also returns a handle to the list of created patch objects. 
%
%   Example
%     t = linspace(0, 2*pi, 100)';
%     xt = 10 * cos(t);
%     yt = 5 * sin(t);
%     zt = zeros(1,100);
%     figure; fillPolygon3d(xt, yt, zt, 'c');
