In plotting Y(x)=10^x, for x=0:5 matlab gives y-axis tick labels as 0 1 2 3 4 and last as 5 x 10^5. How can I get all tick labels as 10^x?

I want the y-axis labels as 10^x for inclusion of plots in documents. I can not find the procedure for this in the matlab manual. Can you help?

You could use the MATLAB logarithmic plotting routines:

x = 0:5;
semilogy(x,10.^x)  % Also, see SEMILOGX, LOLOG
