please help regarding plot

how can i plot or draw the following graph/plot. scatter is not working at all as it is adding lot of space between bubbles. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Dotplot_of_random_values_2.png/220px-Dotplot_of_random_values_2.png

i have some values instead of random valuesand i want to plot exactly what is given in the link.

Doubt you'll get much use out of this, but here's how I recreated the plot in the link you gave!

numbers = round(9*rand(50,1));    % Generates random numbers between 0 and 9.
hold on;
max = 0;
for j = 0:9                       % Plots each number 1 at a time, moving up one unit each time one is found
    count = 1;
    for i = 1:50
        if numbers(i) == j
            plot(numbers(i),count,'ko','MarkerFaceColor','k');
            count=count+1;
        end
        if count > max
            max = count;
        end
    end
end
axis([-.5 9.5 0 max])
set(gca,'YTickLabel','')
title('Dotplot of Random Values')
xlabel('Random Values')
