MATLAB: Plot certain values in yaxis

axisylim;

I have y06=[1.172 4.213E-01 9.562E-02 1.802E-02 3.950E-03 1.056E-03 3.218E-04 8.506E-05 1.704E-05 3.304E-06 5.482E-7 7.241E-8 1.569E-8 6.039E-9 3.114E-9 1.866E-9 1.226E-9 8.560E-10 6.245E-10 4.705E-10 3.634E-10 2.863E-10 2.290E-10 1.856E-10 1.521E-11 1.257E-10 1.048E-10 8.787E-11 7.415E-11 6.290E-11 5.361E-11 4.588E-11 3.942E-11 3.398E-11 2.939E-11 2.549E-11 2.217E-11 1.933E-11 1.689E-11 1.479E-11 1.297E-11 1.140E-11 1.004E-11 8.850E-12 7.815E-12 6.911E-12 6.119E-12 5.425E-12 4.815E-12 4.278E-12 3.805E-12 3.375E-12 3.009E-12 2.685E-12 2.399E-12 2.144E-12 1.919E-12 1.718E-12 1.539E-12 1.380E-12 1.238E-12 1.112E-12 9.989E-13 8.979E-13 8.077E-13 7.269E-13 6.546E-13 5.899E-13 5.318E-13 4.797E-13 4.330E-13 3.910E-13 3.533E-13 3.193E-13 2.888E-13 2.614E-13 2.367E-13 2.144E-13 1.944E-13 1.763E-13 1.600E-13 1.452E-13 1.319E-13 1.199E-13 1.091E-13 9.928E-14 9.041E-14 8.238E-14 7.511E-14 6.854E-14 6.258E-14 5.717E-14 5.227E-14 4.783E-14 4.380E-14 4.014E-14 3.681E-14 3.379E-14 3.104E-14 2.854E-14 2.626E-14]; xalt=0:10:1000; %(km)
plot(xalt(11:end),y06(11:end),'or')
But in the yaxis I want this interval: 1e-6:1e-2:1e-14 Someone knows how to do it???

Best Answer

1e-6:1e-2:1e-14
ans =
1.0000e-06
There are two reasons why this does not make any sense.
  • The step size is larger than the entire span.
  • The start value is larger than the end-value, with a positive step-size
Perhaps, what you are really looking for, is a logarithmic y-axis
set(gca,'yscale','log')
