Hello,

I use the ListLogPlot function to plot data. I want to insert the following ranges

```
Y range = [1E-03, 1E-02, 1E-01, 1E+00]  
X range=[0,5,10,15,20,25]  

```

How can I do that?

Thanks.

Do you mean `PlotRange`? Beware of the meaning of square brackets `[]`.

I want the same format and range as in attached image.

You should look up the options `PlotRange` and `GridLines`.

I forgot, you may want to check out `FortranForm` for the formatting of numbers.

You should show your code.

This is a part of code

```
xx= ListLogPlot[{Transpose[{Energy, H1}], Transpose[{H2, H3}], 
   Transpose[{H4, H5}], Transpose[{H4, H6}]},
  PlotRange -> {{-0.2, 30}, {0.0003, 1.00}}

```

I don’t see anything wrong in this example:

```
ListLogPlot[{{0, .2}, {10, .6}}, 
 PlotRange -> {{-0.2, 30}, {0.0003, 1.00}}, 
 GridLines -> {{0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25}, 10^Range[-3, 0]}]

```

There is no wrong in example, I want Y range appear as same as attached image, I mean Y range be as 1.E-03, 1.E-02, 1.0E-01 and 1.E00.

How about reading the documentation???

```
ListLogPlot[{{0, .2}, {10, .6}}, 
 PlotRange -> {{-0.2, 30}, {0.0003, 1.00}}, 
 GridLines -> {{0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25}, 10^Range[-3, 0]}, Frame -> True,
 FrameTicks -> {{{{1, "1.E+00"}, {1/10, "1.E-01"}, {1/100, 
      "1.E-02"}, {1/1000, "1.E-03"}}, Automatic}, Automatic}]

```
