stem problem

Hi,

I would like to make a stem diagram where drop lines are horizontal and not vertical. Even better would be if ML is able to plot horizontal vectors from a baseline of y-axis.

Actually what I'm trying to plot is velocity profile in pipe. eg. http://www.flowmeterdirectory.com/images/flowmeter_artc_02031701_03.gif

Can anyone help me?

Thanks for all your help!

I suggest you to use quiver function:

y = 0:10;
u = 25-(y-5).^2;
quiver(0*y,y,u,0*u)

Of course you can do it with stem function:

x = 0:10;
y = 25-(x-5).^2;

stem(x,y)
view(90,90)

thx for ur reply!

trick with view command also change x and y axis. That's why I had to do like this:

stem (y,x);

set(gca,'YDir','reverse');

view (-90,90)
