How to specify histogram's x and y axis

I have 2 subplots in a figure, both of them histograms.

1) I'd like the x-axis of the left subplot to go from 0 to 6 like the subplot on the right. I'm sure there's an easy way to do this, but setting the 'XTick' property didn't work.

2) I'd like to extend the y axis on both subplots to go up to 22, but again, manually setting 'YTick' doesn't do it.

You can use the xlim and ylim commands.

Figured it out for anyone trying to do the same: set the 'xlim' and 'ylim' property to your desired max and min values. This is how I did it for both subplots in one go:

ax = findobj(figure1,'Type','Axes');
for i = 1:length(ax)
    ylim(ax(i),[0 22]);
    xlim(ax(i),[0 6]);
end
