I've noticed an irritating - I'm going to say it's an artifact - in
the new contour function. Take
myData = [[32.7759, 30.8012, 27.8589, 24.6717, 22.2133, 20.4595,
19.0960, 18.1344, 17.4240, 16.8068, 16.2542], $
[19.7536, 18.1935, 16.3065, 14.5951, 13.7175, 13.4065, 13.3468,
13.6542, 14.1716, 14.7347, 15.3102]]
CONTOUR, myData
!null = CONTOUR(myData)
You get it, too? Ideas? (If you're not seeing it, the contour function
on my machines here creates a bit of a jagged mess, while the contour
procedure plots nice, smooth lines.)

What algorithms are used in these two cases? Are they anything
like the ones described here
