How to get the ticks for each value of the logarithmic scale?
显示 更早的评论
Hi,
I'm learning to read logarithmic graphs and haven't found anywhere what the ticks between 10^0 and 10^1 for instance are (they are not 10^.1, 10^.2, etc because the gap becomes smaller, and not larger...) and how to plot them in Matlab. Any help appreciated.

Can you post an example of what you mean? A screen shot or picture?

The ticks between 10^0 (or 1) and 10^1 (or 10) are the integers between 1 and 10. They are scaled logarithmically, so the apparent distance between them appears to decrease.
This example code:
x = linspace(0.1, 1.0, 10);
y = x;
figure(1)
semilogx(x, y)
ax = gca;
ax.XMinorTick = 'on';
ax.XAxis.TickValues = x;
ax.XAxis.Exponent = 1;
xlabel('Logarithmic X-Axis')
ylabel('Linear Y-Axis')

produces this plot:

As always, my pleasure!
Correct.

My pleasure.
The decreasing gaps are due to plotting logarithmic values on a linear scale (which is what the semilog axis does).
Consider:
Xtix = log10(10:10:100)
DiffXTix = diff([0 Xtix])
Xtix = 1.0000 1.3010 1.4771 1.6021 1.6990 1.7782 1.8451 1.9031 1.9542 2.0000
DiffXTix = 1.0000 0.3010 0.1761 0.1249 0.0969 0.0792 0.0669 0.0580 0.0512 0.0458
You can see that the differences between the logarithm values decrease as the values themselves increase. That is the nature of logarithms, and what the plot illustrates.
