    Draw a unstructured triangular grid as lines and/or markers.

    The triangulation to plot can be specified in one of two ways;
    either::

      triplot(triangulation, ...)

    where triangulation is a :class:`matplotlib.tri.Triangulation`
    object, or

    ::

      triplot(x, y, ...)
      triplot(x, y, triangles, ...)
      triplot(x, y, triangles=triangles, ...)
      triplot(x, y, mask=mask, ...)
      triplot(x, y, triangles, mask=mask, ...)

    in which case a Triangulation object will be created.  See
    :class:`~matplotlib.tri.Triangulation` for a explanation of these
    possibilities.

    The remaining args and kwargs are the same as for
    :meth:`~matplotlib.axes.Axes.plot`.

    **Example:**

    #     ax.plot(x[edges].T, y[edges].T, *args, **kwargs)
    # then the markers are drawn more than once which is incorrect if alpha<1.
    # Hence draw lines and markers separately.
