Creating Excel-like graphs

Hi,

I would like to trace excel-like graphs. Meaning I have a pair of XY data of size 7 and if I plot with MatLab it joins the points with straight lines. I would like to do the same thing that the option "Scatter with smoothed lines and markers" does in Excel.

Thanks!

Hello David,

The plot command takes a variety of colors and line- and marker-styles to customize your plots as seen here, read this documentation for more info.

x = linspace(-pi,pi,50);
y = sin(x);

plot(x,y,'ro-')

If the "smooth" line is the crux for you, might I suggest looking at this answer.
