I've seen plots with y-axis at the center of the plot rather than to the left. How do I do this in MATLAB?

Please be more specific, you could be talking about using suplots or adjusting the axis so y is at center or something else.

I'm just talking about simple plot function like plot(something). How to adjust the axis so y axis shows at the center.

Just use set(gca, 'YAxisLocation', 'origin') if you are using a MATLAB newer than 2018, I think
