axis([0 20 -1 1])

for k = 1:length(x);
% first line
xk = x(k);
ysin = sin(xk);
addpoints(a1,xk,ysin);
% second line

Hi,
In the above code I want to add a marker to the current point in the plot as shown in the attached fig. So, I want the trajectory to be visible as a line and the current point as a marker.

Just a plot() with drawnow better simulates the animated plot:
axis([0 20 -1 1])
x = linspace(0,20,1000);
for k = 1:length(x)
% first line
xk = x(k);
ysin = sin(xk);
plot(xk, ysin, 'bo-', 'markerfacecolor', 'y'), hold on
% second line
ycos = cos(xk);
plot(xk, ycos, 'rp-', 'markerfacecolor', 'c'),
% update screen
drawnow
pause(0.0000001)
hold all
end
