Plotting a rectangle in 3D space

Hi, Suppose I have four points as p1 = [x1,y1,z];p2 = [x2,y2,z];p3 = [x3,y3,z];p4 = [x4,y4,z];

If these four points form a perfect rectangle,what line of code should I write to plot this rectangle in 3D space?

Thanks.

plot3d( [x1 x2 x3 x4 x1], [y1 y2 y3 y4 y1], [z z z z z] )

If, that is, you want it as a line. If you want it as a surface, use patch() instead of plot3d()

Which toolboxes are needed? It's not recognized on Matlab R2013a

It should read plot3, not plot3D.
