ply_io_test():
  MATLAB/Octave version 9.14.0.2306882 (R2023a) Update 4:
  Test ply_io().

TEST01
  TRI_MESH_TO_PLY converts a pair of arrays
  describing a triangular mesh into a data
  structure suitable for a PLY file.

  PLY_WRITE writes PLY data to a file.

  The first 5 nodes:

  Convert the TRI_MESH data to PLY data.

  Write the PLY data to the file "pyramid.ply".

TEST02
  PLY_READ reads a PLY file.
  It can return a PLY data structure,
  or a pair ( NODE_XYZ, TRIANGLE_NODE)
  which is a simple triangular mesh.

  In this example, we demonstrate the triangular
  mesh option.

  Extract nodes and triangles from "sphere.ply"
