ytick.m

JLAB is a set of Matlab functions I have written or co-written over the past fifteen years for the p

function[]=ytick(i1,i2)
%YTICK   Set locations of y-axis tick marks.
%
%   YTICK(DY) or YTICK DY where DY is a number uses DY as the interval
%   between successive y-tick marks, with the endpoints being the
%   left- and right-hand axes limits, and applies this to the current
%   axis.
%
%   YTICK(DY) where DY is an array sets the 'ytick' property of the
%   current ayis to DY.
%
%   YTICK(H,DY) applies the change to axes H.
