I want to simply the following codes to make a figure with 2-by-6 subplots. How can I make it with a for loop?
figure(1);
h1=subplot(2,6,1), hLine1=plot(X,A(1,:),X,B(1,:));title(type{1});
h2=subplot(2,6,2), hLine2=plot(X,A(2,:),X,B(2,:));title(type{2});
h3=subplot(2,6,3), hLine3=plot(X,A(3,:),X,B(3,:));title(type{3});
h4=subplot(2,6,4), hLine4=plot(X,A(4,:),X,B(4,:));title(type{4});
h5=subplot(2,6,5), hLine5=plot(X,A(5,:),X,B(5,:));title(type{5});
h6=subplot(2,6,6), hLine6=plot(X,A(6,:),X,B(6,:));title(type{6});
h7=subplot(2,6,7), hLine7=plot(X,A(7,:),X,B(7,:));title(type{7});
h8=subplot(2,6,8), hLine8=plot(X,A(8,:),X,B(8,:));title(type{8});
h9=subplot(2,6,9), hLine9=plot(X,A(9,:),X,B(9,:));title(type{9});
h10=subplot(2,6,10), hLine10=plot(X,A(10,:),X,B(10,:));title(type{10});
h11=subplot(2,6,11), hLine11=plot(X,A(11,:),X,B(11,:));title(type{11});
h12=subplot(2,6,12), hLine12=plot(X,A(12,:),X,B(12,:));title(type{12});

I would do it this way:
figure(1)
for k1 = 1:12
subplot(2,6,k1)
h{k1} = plot(X,A(k1,:),X,B(k1,:));title(type{k1});
end
NOTE — I do not have your data so this is UNTESTED CODE. It should work.

My pleasure!
I didn’t initially see that you had two sets of handles. The revised code would be:
figure(1)
for k1 = 1:12
h{k1} = subplot(2,6,k1)
hLine{k1} = plot(X,A(k1,:),X,B(k1,:));title(type{k1});
end
The handles to the subplots are in the cell array ‘h’, and to the plot in the cell array ‘hLine’.

I would propose something like @strider, but using curly instead.
figure(1)
for k1 = 1:12
h(k1) = subplot(2,6,k1)
hLine(k1)= plot(X,A(k1,:),X,B(k1,:));title(type{k1});
end
The reason is for, in some circumstances, one would like to link axes among the subplot. And by using the curly braces,, the link axes can be simply achieved as follow
linkaxes(h,'x');

However, trying your logic, it shows me subplot (2,1,1), while subplot (2,1,2) on different figures and not on the same figure. I want it should retain (2,1,1) and plot (2,1,2) on the same figure during execution in the loop. Kindly pls suggest.
