short format for the normalized histogram

Hello,

I have the figure below. Does anybody know how can I use just two decimal points? I used the code below for plotting

r = histogram(angle_degree,'Normalization','pdf')

histfit(angle_degree,25,'normal')

yt = get(gca, 'YTick');

set(gca, 'YTick', yt, 'YTickLabel', yt/numel(angle_degree))

I want to show yt/numel(angle_degree) just two decimal points after dot.

Thanks

One way to do this is to use the ruler object representing the Y axis and change the TickLabelFormat for that axis. Using a slightly modified version of one of the examples from the histogram documentation page, let's create a histogram.

x = randn(10000,1);
h = histogram(x, 'Normalization', 'pdf');

Get the handle to the axes in which the histogram is located.

ax = ancestor(h, 'axes');

Get the handle to the Y axis ruler of that axes.

Y = ax.YAxis;

Change the TickLabelFormat to something that provides 4 decimal places.

Y.TickLabelFormat = '%0.4f';

Thank you! It is good,

However, when I use histfit everything is collapsed! Just use histfit after your own code
