## Plot a function in polar coordinates.  The function @var{f} is
## a string, inline function, or function handle with a single argument.
## The expected form of the function is
## @code{@var{rho} = @var{f}(@var{theta})}.
## By default the plot is over the domain @code{0 < @var{theta} < 2*pi} with 60
## points.
##
## If @var{dom} is a two element vector, it represents the minimum and maximum
## values of @var{theta}.  @var{n} is a scalar defining the number of points to
## use.  If the optional input @var{hax} is given then the plot is placed into
## the specified axes rather than the current axes.
##
## The optional return value @var{h} is a graphics handle to the created plot.
##
## Example:
##
## @example
## ezpolar (@@(t) 1 + sin (t));
## @end example
##
## @seealso{polar, ezplot, ezsurf, ezmesh}
## @end deftypefn
