Y data addition on scatter plot

i am plotting a scatter plot X= [ 2 ,3,4,5] Y=[10,20,30,40] scatter(X,Y) i am looking for putting y values on the scatter plot...any specific code or hint can anyone help.i am using 2016b version.Thank you in advance.

Well, the code - as you have it now - works:

 X= [ 2 ,3,4,5]

X = 1×4

2 3 4 5

 Y=[10,20,30,40]

Y = 1×4

10 20 30 40

 scatter(X,Y)

You need to convert those cell arrays to numeric matrices before you can plot them (scatter or otherwise):

X= { 2 ,3,4,5}

X = 1×4 cell array
    {[2]}    {[3]}    {[4]}    {[5]}

Y={ 10,20,30,40}

Y = 1×4 cell array
    {[10]}    {[20]}    {[30]}    {[40]}

scatter(cell2mat(X),cell2mat(Y))

Thank you for the answer Benjamin.if i want Y data on that scatter plot any specific text can you suggest for example At (3,20) it should show as data on scatter like (3,20) on plot or simply 20 that will also work

You can use text() or annotation() or maybe datatip() for that, sounds like. Here it is with text():

X= [ 2 ,3,4,5];
Y=[10,20,30,40];
scatter(X,Y);
text(X(2),Y(2),sprintf(' (%d,%d)',X(2),Y(2)));

Thank you Benjamin it worked

Use square brackets to define vectors, not curly braces. You might find MATLAB Onramp helpful, especially chapters 2, 4 & 9. Also, capitalization matters in MATLAB. X is not the same variable as x.

X= [2,3,4,5];
Y=[10,20,30,40];
scatter(X,Y)
