3d interpolation using points?

I have these points: p1=(30 0 0.2035) , p2=(0 0 0.0357) , p3= (30 60 0.4717), p4=(30 0 0.1038), p5=(30 30 0.4606) I'd like to interpolate between them and plot the interpolation. How? Thanks

3D Interpolation using parametric cubic spline.
clc; clear all ;
% Inteprolation using Parametric cubic spline
% Given points
P = [30 0 0.2035 ;
0 0 0.0357 ;
30 60 0.4717 ;
30 0 0.1038 ;
30 30 0.4606] ;
x = P(:,1) ; y = P(:,2) ; z = P(:,3) ;
% Get the arc lengths of the curve
n = length(x) ;
L = zeros(n,1) ;
for i=2:n
arc_length = sqrt((x(i)-x(i-1))^2+(y(i)-y(i-1))^2+(z(i)-z(i-1))^2);
L(i) = L(i-1) + arc_length;
end
% Normalize the arc lengths
L=L./L(n);
% do the spline
x_t = spline(L,x) ;
y_t = spline(L,y) ;
z_t = spline(L,z) ;
% for interpolation
tt = linspace(0,1,500) ;
xi = ppval(x_t,tt) ;
yi = ppval(y_t,tt) ;
zi = ppval(z_t,tt) ;
plot3(x,y,z,'.-r') ;
hold on
plot3(xi,yi,zi,'.b') ;
legend('Given points' , 'interpolated') ;
