Please help me perfect code

Hello Matlab Gods.

I am curently in the middle of a 'Battleship' homework project i am tryin to take to the next level.

I have a matrix,

target = [0 0 0 0 0 2 2 0 0 0;0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 3;0 4 4 4 4 0 0 0 0 3;5 0 0 6 0 0 0 0 0 3;5 0 0 0 6 0 0 0 0 0;5 0 0 0 0 6 0 0 0 0;5 0 0 0 0 0 6 0 0 0;5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 0;0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 0;0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0];

How would i go about 3d plotting this x,y,z

where x and y are the position coordenates and z is the number on the matrix, ie, the bigger number the deeper the z value.

I would also like to display my misses interms of the z slope to the ship ( not sure if that makes sense)

If i miss by one opsition i would like a coulour gardient to be shown on 'game' plot.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

fyi, these tips wont gain me a higer grader as i have already completed required tasks, this is just to make it the best i can interms of my ideas. i will post the code below.

Ps, if you notice anything that can be improved upon, please let me know, i will be sure to share the knowledge!

Thanks!!

Kevin

% I hope it was ok to make my own matrix?? i wants to have controle over
% the diffeent ships.
