Vertical Xticks

Instead of being shown as horizontal numbers I want the X axis to show the numbers vertically. How can I do this?

There are submission that do this kind of stuff, nevertheless the "manual" implementation with text labels:

% Dummy plot

plot(1:10,1:10)

% Retrieve number of Xticks

xticks = get(gca,'Xtick');
nticks = numel(xticks)-1;

% Clear Xlabels

set(gca,'Xtickl',[])

% Text options for new Xlabels

opt = {'Units'                ,'Normalized',...
       'HorizontalAlignment'  ,'Center',...
       'Rotation'               ,90};

% Create text for each Xlabel

arrayfun(@(x,xlbl) text(x,-.025,sprintf('%d',xlbl),opt{:}),0:1/nticks:1,xticks)
