Why my barchart's 'xticklabel' is skipping the odd numbers and adding 0 and another number at the end?

This is my code where i expect 1,2,3,4,5 as "xticklabel". But MATLAB is adding 0 and 6 at the end and skipping 1,3,5!

EFV = [34.4263250184944312;
55.7029868436263982;
56.9140938310396862;
60.0977661822922329;
15.4772478454135065];

figure(1)
title(' (EFV)','fontsize',10,"fontweight","Bold");
xlabel(' Mechanisms')
ylabel('(EFV)')
box on
hold on
for i = 1:length(EFV)
    h=bar(i,EFV(i));
    if EFV(i) == min(EFV)
        set(h,'FaceColor','b');
    elseif EFV(i) == max(EFV)
        set(h,'FaceColor','r');
    else
        set(h,'FaceColor','k');
    end
end

Well, matlab has its own way to select and adjust what tick-marks should be used. What you can add at the end is something like this:

xticks = 1:numel(EVF);
set(gca,'XTick',xticks)

Thanks.

How can i remove additional space at the beginning and at the end?

[Bjorn Gustavsson]

I typically use something like:

edge_width = 0.1;
xmin = 1;
xmax = numel(EVF);
ax = axis;
axis([xmin-edge_width xmax+edge_width ax(3:4)])
