plotting data by month/year

Hi,

I have data files from 06/2016 to 06/2017 by month which I am plotting. I need the xaxis intervals to be labeled with the month and year; can anyone help me with this?

Thank you!

Hi Alexis,

You may look into this data type called timetable . It is quite new so not many people know about it. But it is basically just designed to deal with time series or any data with time stamps, and according to my experience, it does job way better than scripts I wrote before.

Alternatively, you can call this after plotting in datenum format. datenum is available for over 10 years in the basic distribution of Matlab.

datetick('x','mmm-yy','keeplimits')
