from Solution to Economic Dispatch by Differential evolution by Saloman Danaraj
this software solves the economic dispatch by differential evolution

xplt(NP,pop,vec,flag)
function out = xplt(NP,pop,vec,flag)
% xplt plots a coloured point with coordinates vec(1), vec(2)
% on a 3D-surface if flag is not equal 0. Otherwise NP colored
% points, stored in pop, will be plotted.
%
% Example: xplt(NP,pop)
%          where pop is a two-dimensional array of NP points
%

% Used by: der.m
