Plot a timeseries from array of dates

Hello,

I have an array that is 6xN The 6 rows are YYYY, DD, MM, HH, MM, SS from timestamp data

I would like to know how can I plot this as a timeseries?

>> timelist([1 2 3 4 5 6],1)

ans =

          2012
            16
             1
            11
            11
            48

Convert each column into a proper numeric date:

datenum(timelist')

EDIT

datetick('x')

Ok, but how do I plot that in a meaningful way? plot(datenum(timelist'),ydata) doesn't show the date as the x axis, just some scalar

See the edit, use it after you plotted.

Ok, I should be able to figure the rest out now. Thank you!
