MATLAB: Change the color of data in legend

Question

I have 3 plots on the same figure but legend doesn't show the right color for each plot.

y=1:10;

color_=['r', 'b'];

for i=1:2

if i==1

j=1;

elseif i==2

j=6;

end

plot(y(j:j+4),color_(i));

hold on

plot([0 10],[5 5],'g');

end

legend('plot1','plot2','line');

Answer 1

h1 = plot(x1,y1,'r');
hold on
h2 = plot(x2,y2,'b');
legend([h1,h2],'plot1','plot2')

The line color used for legend() will be the same as the line color used on the graph.
