# semilogx, semilogy

## Purpose

Semi-logarithmic plots.

## Synopsis

    semilogx(x,y)
    semilogy(x,y)

## Description

`semilogx` and `semilogy`, as well as `loglog`, are used exactly the same as `plot`, but they result in graphs on different scales.

`semilogx(x,y)` makes a plot using a base 10 logarithmic scale for the x-axis and a linear scale for the y-axis.

`semilogy(x,y)` makes a plot using a base 10 logarithmic scale for the y-axis and a linear scale for the x-axis.

## Examples

A simple `semilogy` plot is:

    x = 0:.1:10;
    semilogy(x,10.^x)
