Plot - add legend individually

How can I update the legend of each plot individually rather than at the end of the code ?
plot(x1, y1, '-vr', 'LineWidth', linewidth, 'MarkerSize', markersize);
legend('Algorithm 1');
plot(x2, y2, '-vr', 'LineWidth', linewidth, 'MarkerSize', markersize);
legend('Algorithm 2');
The code above overwrites the legend for Algorithm 1

If you are working with a fairly recent version of Matlab (> R2014b I think) then you can edit an existing legend if you keep the handle to it:
figure; hAxes = gca;
plot(hAxes, x1, y1, '-vr', 'LineWidth', linewidth, 'MarkerSize', markersize);
hLegend = legend( hAxes, 'stuff' );
hold( hAxes, 'on' )
plot(hAxes, x2, y2, '-vr', 'LineWidth', linewidth, 'MarkerSize', markersize);
hLegend.String{2} = 'other stuff';
It is more efficient to do all the plots first and then put the legend up for all of them though.

You are right. It is easier to just add them all at the end. Still, thanks for the solution.
