cloudPlot will help visualize the distribution of a 2-dimensional dataset. It is especially helpful when looking at extremely large datasets where a redular plot(x,y,'.') will just fill the plot with a solid color because the measurement points overlap each other.
cloudPlot uses the built-in matlab routines to set the axis limits and grid points appropriate to the data.
