% covarianceEllipse plots a Gaussian as an uncertainty ellipse
% Based on Maybeck Vol 1, page 366
% k=2.296 corresponds to 1 std, 68.26% of all probability
% k=11.82 corresponds to 3 std, 99.74% of all probability

% covarianceEllipse(x,P,color,k)
% it is assumed x and y are the first two components of state x
% k is scaling for std deviations, defaults to 1 std
