xscale("log")

Input: "log" · Output: no output

What it is

Sets that axis's scale from a string, "linear" or "log". A log axis draws minor ticks per decade without being asked.

Overloads

One call shape — this function is not overloaded.

Examples

From the documentation, and run by the build -- the output and the figure below are what the engine actually produced. Simplest first.

figure()
t = linspace(0, 1, 200)
plot(t, sin(2 * pi * 5 * t))
xticks([0, 0.5, 1])
xticklabels("start", "mid", "end")
yticks([-1, 0, 1])
yticklabels("low", "zero", "high")
fontfamily("sans")
fontsize(tick = 10, label = 12, title = 14)
figure_background("#f7f7f7")
colormap("viridis")
colorbar()
grid()
box()
subplot(1, 1, 1)
xscale("linear")
yscale("linear")
title("Styled panel")
