How to keep yticklabels intact after reversing the Y-axis

I reversed y-direction in a chart, but I would like my yticklabels stay same as were, ie. 80 at the top and 0 at bottom. How do I solve it?

I tried to define them manually but to no avail

yticklabels([0:10:80])

set(gca,'ydir','reverse')

What's wrong with just flipping your data?

y = 80-y;

?

Just change the labels —

x = linspace(0, 100);
y = [20:20:80].'*exp(-(x-50).^2/75);

figure
plot(x, y)
grid
title('Original')

figure
plot(x, y)
grid
Ax = gca;
yt = Ax.YTick;
Ax.YDir = 'reverse';
Ax.YTickLabel = string(flip(yt));
title('Flipped Y-Axis With Retained Original Y-Axis Labels')
