MATLAB: Bar graph related problem

the cyclist azzi abdelmalek jan simon on

I'm in a problem which is I have used the bar for a plot.I have used 7 times bar withhold on i.e plotted 7 bar in one figure but the problem I'm facing is on Y axis values are not exact I mean one bar has value in between 10 to 11 or etc similarly others are. I need exact values on Y-axis which 1 to 16 with very small increment so that I can see somewhat exact value of my bar graph

Adjust the YTick, YMinorTick, YGrid, and/or YMinorGrid properties of the axes to your liking.

If you're using release R2016b or later, you can use the convenience function yticks to set YTick easily.

You can use the grid function (introduced before release R2006a) to set YGrid and YMinorGrid easily.

Instead of bar(x, y), use

t = 1:length(y);
bar(t, y, 'Parent', ax);
set(ax, 'XTick', t, 'XTickLabel', x);

Per

doc grid
grid(gca,'minor')

toggles the state of the minor grids and

grid on

turns only the major grid on. As the footnote says, use

hAx=gca;  % avoid repetitive function calls
set(hAx,'xminorgrid','on','yminorgrid','on')

to unequivocally set them in 'on' position

ADDENDUM

It would seem a reasonable enhancement request to add the 'ON|OFF' values to the 'MINOR' keyword to provide the specific functionality of

set(hAx,'xminorgrid','on','yminorgrid','on')
