Problematic categorical inputs when using line or scatter plot

13 views (last 30 days)
Hi
I'm having trouble getting the last group in my scatter/line plot (100-109) going to the last spot chronologically like it should be. My code is:
Age = {'0-9';'1-19';'20-29';'30-39';'40-49';'50-59';'60-69';'70-79';'80-89';'90-99';'100-109'};
age=categorical(Age)
line(age,HumanPopDataThursF183.VarName4,'Marker','o')
and the last group in the data set somehow becomes the third point on the graph:

Categorical values on the axis are ordered by the ruler Categorical property. To override this, use the following code:
line(Age,rand(1,length(Age)),'Marker','o');
ax = gca;
ax.XAxis.Categories = Age;
