Legend inside for loop

Hello,
I want to generate single legend outside for the figure window for all subplots. I am doing plots inside a loop like this:
t,x and y are given datas
for i=1:10
figure()
subplot(2,2,i)
plot(x,y)
hold on
plot(t,y)
subplot(2,2,i)
plot(x,y-y')
hold on
% ........
legend('1','2,','3')
end
But i am still getting the legend on all plots.
any help is appreciated
Dan

This should produce an error since it appears that you are attempting to generate 10 suplots in a 2x2 grid. But since we don't see the rest of what's going on within the loop, I can't be sure.
It's unclear what the goals is and what the actual results are.
sorry it shoud be (2,5,i) and end is followed
Can you kindly share sample code for this case? thank you dear
I must have missed the end. Thanks.
Move figure out of the loop if you want all suplots within the same figure.
Move Legend out of the loop if you only want to create a legend for the last subplot.
Unfortunatley this method is not working for me, dear KSSV

for i=1:10
figure()
subplot(2,2,i)
H(3*i-2) = plot(x, y, 'displayname', i + "A");
hold on
H(3*i-1) = plot(t, y, 'displayname', i + "B");
subplot(2,2,i)
H(3*i) = plot(x, y-y', 'displayname', i + "C");
hold on
% ........
end
legend(H)
Are you wanting only 3 entries in the legend, total? If so then you would want to be explicit about the line colors, and you would legend(H(1:3))

I have to use get 10 plots and i am using subplot(2,5,i) .
thank you
for i=1:10
subplot(2,5,i)
H(3*i-2) = plot(x, y, 'displayname', i + "A");
hold on
H(3*i-1) = plot(t, y, 'displayname', i + "B");
H(3*i) = plot(x, y-y', 'displayname', i + "C");
hold off
% ........
end
legend(H)
I used your code to modify mine and its giving me this :
Error using legend (line 272)
Invalid argument. Type 'help legend' for more
information.
Error in single_legend (line 122)
legend(H)
x = 1:10; y = rand(size(x));
for i=1:10
subplot(2,5,i)
H(3*i-2) = plot(x, y, 'displayname', i + "A");
hold on
H(3*i-1) = plot(x, y, 'displayname', i + "B");
H(3*i) = plot(x, y-y', 'displayname', i + "C");
hold off
% ........
end
Unable to perform assignment because the left and right sides have a different number of elements.
legend(H)
What size is y? If y is a vector then y - y' creates a square matrix in which each element of y is subtracted from each other element of y; the result of plotting that would be multiple lines.
