hello ,
I'm trying to plot dates and the correspondings hourly electricity prices for a specific period by using the code
dateind = Date > datenum('July 2, 2008') & Date < datenum('Aug 13, 2008');
plot(Date(dateind), ElecPrice(dateind));
ylabel('$/MWh'); title('Electricity Prices from July 2, 2008 to Aug 13, 2008');
dates and electricity prices are of type double but my plot is not the right one . The problem is that i don't get the right graph shape. Here is a data sample... DATES
733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733408 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733409 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733410 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733411 733412 733412 733412 733412

DATES24 = [];
for Day = min(DATES):max(DATES)
for Hours = 1:24
DATES24 = [DATES24; addtodate(Day, Hours, 'hour')];
end
end
DATES24_Str = datestr(DATES24)
The nested loops are necessary because addtodate only takes scalar inputs.

y0=2008;m0=1;d0=1
datestr(datenum(2008,1,1,(1:24*365*4+23),0,0),'dd-mmm-yyyy HH:MM:SS')
