Dear All,

I want to plot a bar graph as follow,

YY =    [0.2722    0.2126    0.2543    0.2576    0.0034];
bar(YY);

now when I plot the graph as above, it gives me only blue color for the bar and also on x-axis it give me number 1,2,3,4,5 against each bar.

following what I want to do,

1) To color individual bar with different color.
2) Make Legend(text) for each bar, instead of number, at the bottom/top of each bar.

Set the xticklabel property of the axes that the bars are in.
