Do you mean the Dirac delta function? If so, then dirac might help you.
Also, if you do mean the Dirac delta, I hope you realize that it can't truly be "drawn", because it goes to infinity. It can be represented somehow (e.g. by drawing an arrow at the x location where the Delta is).

The function normally will not plot in MATLAB because it has infinite amplitude and infinitesimal width.
So it is necessary to approximate it in ordfer to plot it —
t = linspace(0, 2, 21);
Delta = dirac(t - 1)
Delta = 1×21
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Inf 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
idx = Delta == Inf;
Delta(idx) = 1;
figure
stem(t, Delta, 'filled')
axis('padded')
.
