bar plot problem

hello i"m trying to graph a bar plot from form .1 to .9 based on this index p=.1:.1:.1 but its graphing from it seems to be plotting from about -.3 to 1.3 can someone help me please fix this

win=0 step=0 for p=.1:.1:.9

for i=1:1:100

   a=3
   b=3
   c=3

         while a>0 && b>0 && c>0

           step=step+1

      d=rand(1,3)

      if d(1,1)<p && d(1,2)<p && d(1,3) <p
          a=a+0
          b=b+0
          c=c+0

      elseif d(1,1)>p && d(1,2) >p &&d(1,3) >p
          a=a+0
          b=b+0
          c=c+0

      elseif d(1,1)<p && d(1,3) < p

          a= a -1
          b= b+2
          c= c-1

      elseif d(1,1)>p &&d(1,3) >p
        a= a -1
          b= b+2
          c= c-1

      elseif d(1,3)<p &&d(1,2) < p
          a= a +2
          b= b-1
          c= c-1

      elseif d(1,2)>p && d(1,3) >p
        a= a +2
          b= b-1
          c= c-1

      elseif d(1,1)<p &&d(1,2) < p            
          a= a -1
          b= b-1
          c= c+2

      elseif d(1,1)>p && d(1,2) >p
        a= a -1
          b= b-1
          c= c+2

      end
     end
win=win+1
end

 %axis([0 1 0 75])
avg=step/100
bar(p,avg)
hold on
end

A quick fix is to put the following line after your bar() command:

 >> set(get(gca,'Children'),'BarWidth',0.1)

The problem is that your bars are being plotted with width 0.8, by default. Then, each one overlaps the previous ones. If you put a breakpoint just after that bar() command, and see each bar being put down, you'll see what I mean.

A better solution, but which I am too lazy to implement for you, would be for you to get all the values of p and avg stored into vectors, then do the bar plot with the vectors, outside the loop. Then MATLAB would do the work of adjusting the widths appropriately.

thank you works great
