How to fix the scaling of axis?

Hi, I have a plot from matlab as show. However, I would like to format the scaling of y axis insuch a that upper limit is 1 and lower limit is 0.7. I have tried none of them works. Could you please help me so that I can truncate the plot by decimal place.
This will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance. Mahesh

Mahesh - try using ylim to set the y-axis limits. In your case, the code would be
ylim([0.7 1]);

Thanks Hayes,
There will be no problem if we are doing it manually. But what if we do not know the bounds? In this case, how we can compute the bound? I am concerned with this.
Mahesh - what do you want the bound to be? Should the lower bound be something less than the minimum value that is being plotted? Should the upper bound be something greater than the maximum value that is being plotted? It is up to you to determine how to compute the bounds
So just pick something at random. If you don't know what the bounds are , or should be, then you will not know if you're wrong. I mean, who's to say you picked wrong values if you don't know what's wrong and what's right?
In this sense, I want to truncate the axis like corresponding to 0.718 as 0.6 in lower value and 0.9 in upper value. So I am looking a way to convert like this so that I can set into axis limits. Thanks

Mahesh - but that is your choice to set the limits. Why 0.6 and not 0.7? What is 0.718 - the minimum value on the y-axis or something else?
