- Control over the spacing between the plots and around the edges of the layout
- An option for a shared title at the top of the layout
- Options for shared x- and y-axis labels
- An option to control whether the tiling has a fixed size or variable size that can reflow
How do I add a title to each subplot?

I have the following codes
delta=[-2*pi:0.063:2*pi];
y=sin(delta);
subplot(3,2,1)
plot(y)
y=cos(delta);
subplot(3,2,2)
plot(y)
title(sin(delta))
My question is how do i put the title for each graph and labels? i tried to to do title(sin(delta)) but it doesn't show

Starting in R2019b, you can use the tiledlayout and nexttile functions to create a configurable tiling of plots. The configuration options include:
For R2019a and before, put the title commands after the plot and before the next subplot. Specify the title as a character vector or string scalar.
delta=[-2*pi:0.063:2*pi];
y=sin(delta);
subplot(3,2,1)
plot(y)
title('sin(delta)')
y=cos(delta);
subplot(3,2,2)
plot(y)
title('cos(delta)')

For subplots I often prefer to use ntitle rather than title. The difference is ntitle keeps the text closer to the data, whereas title places the text high above the axes, where it may appear to be an xlabel for to the plot above.

Or this, which is shorter, simpler, and just as effective :-)
title sin(delta)
