Does Any one know what am I doing here and what is the solution for it?

Hi,

I am basically plotting 10 curves on the graph and on each curves I would like to put some text. In my mind, I am doing the write thing but still getting error. Can anyone point me in the right direction:

Errors:

Error: File: asad1.m Line: 26 Column: 12

Indexing with parentheses '()' must appear as the last operation of a valid indexing expression.

Code:

close all

clear all

clc

% Display the text

%text(x(i), y(i), 'Width=0.7m','FontSize',8,'BackgroundColor', 'w', 'rotation', a); %It is working with this line but only show one label on the curve

hold on

This y(i)(1:10:end,:) is not a valid MATLAB syntax. Just use y(i)

text(x(i), y(i), 'Width=0.7m', ...

Hi,

please see the graph attached, with this method I only be able to put the lable on the first graph as you can see. I want to put the label on all the graph. How will I approach to do it ?

[Ameer Hamza]

You can write a for-loop and to go though each line and add the text.
