how to change the direction of this code from right falling into left to left falling into right

Answers (2)

Hi Lior,
To change the direction of the falling dots from left-to-right to right-to-left, the initial plot position is shifted from (10, 10) to (0, 10) to start from the left. The loop is modified to iterate from 1 to 9 instead of 9 to 1, and the y-coordinate in the plot function is adjusted to 10-y. Please find the modified code below:
plot(0, 10, 'r.', 'markersize', 40)
axis([-1, 11, -1, 11])
for y = 1:9
plot(y,10-y, 'r.', 'markersize', 40)
axis([-1, 11, -1, 11])
pause(0.3)
end

you mistunderstood, I want it to go from the top left to the right bottom
more precisly, from (0,10) on the axis to let's say (1,0) or (1,1)
I realized I misunderstood your question, so I've revised my response accordingly.

figure
x = 1:10;
y = 10:-1:1;
for ii = 1:numel(x)
plot(x(ii),y(ii),'r.','markersize',40)
axis([-1,11,-1,11])
pause(0.3)
end

Another option:
x = 1:10;
y = 10:-1:1;
figure
ax = gca();
h = line(ax,'Color','r','Marker','.','MarkerSize',40);
set(ax,'XLim',[-1 11],'YLim',[-1 11])
for ii = 1:numel(x)
set(h,'XData',x(ii),'YData',y(ii))
pause(0.3)
end
