An example script could look like the attached one for a Kuen surface

u = linspace(-4.5,4.5,64);
v = linspace(0.05,pi-0.05,64);

[U, V] = meshgrid(u, v);
W = 1 + U.^2 .* sin(V).^2;
X = 2*(cos(U) + U.*sin(U)) .* sin(V) ./ W;
Y = 2*(sin(U) - U.*cos(U)) .* sin(V) ./ W;
Z = log(tan(V/2)) + 2*cos(V) ./ W;
surf(X,Y,Z);
