    r"""
    Plot ternary diagrams.

    Reads (*a*,\ *b*,\ *c*\ [,\ *z*]) records from *data* and plots symbols at
    those locations on a ternary diagram. If a symbol is selected and no symbol
    size given, then we will interpret the fourth column of the input data as
    symbol size. Symbols whose *size* is <= 0 are skipped. If no symbols are
    specified then the symbol code (see ``style`` below) must be present as
    last column in the input.  If ``style`` is not specified then we instead
    plot lines or polygons.

    Parameters
    ----------
    data : str, list, {table-like}
        Pass in either a file name to an ASCII data table, a Python list, a 2-D
        {table-classes}.
    width : str
        Set the width of the figure by passing a number, followed by
        a unit (**i** for inches, **c** for centimeters). Use a negative width
        to indicate that positive axes directions be clock-wise
        [Default lets the a, b, c axes be positive in a
        counter-clockwise direction].
    region : str or list
        [*amin*, *amax*, *bmin*, *bmax*, *cmin*, *cmax*].
        Give the min and max limits for each of the three axes **a**, **b**,
        and **c**.
    {cmap}
    {fill}
    alabel : str
        Set the label for the *a* vertex where the component is 100%. The
        label is placed at a distance of three times the
        :gmt-term:`MAP_LABEL_OFFSET` setting from the corner.
    blabel : str
        Set the label for the *b* vertex where the component is 100%.
    clabel : str
        Set the label for the *c* vertex where the component is 100%.
    style : str
        *symbol*\[\ *size*].
        Plot individual symbols in a ternary diagram.
