I need to plot a bode graph. I have values for the frequency, magnitude and phase but how do I then put them on a bode diagram?

Have a look at the documentation for semilogx and see if it helps...

Use the subplot function:
figure(1)
subplot(2,1,1)
plot(frequency, magnitude)
grid
xlabel('Frequency (Hz)')
ylabel('Magnitude')
subplot(2,1,2)
plot(frequency, phase)
grid
xlabel('Frequency (Hz)')
ylabel('Phase')

if you have the transfer function than you can enter it in and plot directly from that.
for example for (2s^2+4s+1)/(s+1) where s=jw, you enter the transfer function like this:
G=tf([2,4,1],[1,1])
and then plot using: bode(G)

Quoting the original post:
