%zvisual1('func')
%visualization of complex function (domain coloring)
%hue is the angle of complex function
%sat and val are discontinuous when log(abs(Z))/log(2) exceeds 1
%sat and val are scaled so that their value comes in range
%of 0 to 1 
%
%usage
%
%   zvisual1  
%   calling zvisual1 without any argument draw tan(z)
%   
%
%   zvisual1('sin(z)')
%   plots sin(z) from -pi to pi in x-axis  and -pi to pi in y-axis
%   
%   zvisual1('func')
%   'func' can be any function  
%   example: zvisual1('log(z)')      , zvisual1( 'cot(z)')
%            zvisual1('z.^2 - 1./z') , zvisual1('z.^3-cos(z)')........
%   always use ./ .* .^ operators when passing 'func'
%   any function is drawn from -pi to pi on x-axis  and -pi to pi on y-axis  
%
%   to save image call function as 
%   img=zvisual1('log(z)');
%   imwrite(img,'domaincolor.png','png');
