Using specific color vector in plot

I am trying to figure out how to plot a line segment using a specific color vector, like [1 0 0]. I typed in the command window plot([0 1], [0 1], 'g') and this plots a green line segment from the point 0,0 to 1,1. However, when I type in the code plot([0 1], [0 1], [1 0 0]), I get the following error message:

Error using plot

Data must be a single matrix Y or a list of pairs X,Y.

I also tried typing in ['1 0 0'] for the color vector and got a different message

Error using plot

Error in color/linetype argument.

I feel like I'm missing something obvious but not sure what it could be. Please help!

Hi Kelsey,

You need to use the attribute 'color'. See the following example:

plot([0 1], [0 1], 'color', [1 0 0])
