Line plots are a useful way to compare sets of data or track changes over time. You can plot the data in a 2-D or 3-D view using either a linear or a logarithmic scale. Also, you can plot expressions or functions over specific intervals.

Create a 2-D line plot and specify the line style, line color, and marker type.
Add markers to a line plot to distinguish multiple lines or to highlight particular data points.
Line Plot with Confidence Bounds
Create a plot with confidence bounds using the fill function to draw the confidence bounds and the plot function to draw the data points.
This example shows how to create line and scatter
plots of datetime and duration values using the plot function.
It also shows how to customize the axes.
Create a chart with y-axes on both the left and right sides.
Combine Line and Bar Charts Using Two y-Axes
This example shows how to combine a line chart and a bar chart using two different y-axes.
Control Colors, Line Styles, and Markers in Plots
Control the colors, line styles, and markers used for plotting by setting properties on the axes and line objects.
Plot Imaginary and Complex Data
Plot the imaginary part versus the real part of a complex vector.
Compare Data Sets Using Overlayed Area Graphs
This example shows how to compare two data sets by overlaying their area graphs.
