Real Time Data Acquisition With Arduino Analog Input

I'm in the process of trying to visualise my basic analog light sensor using the plotting function within MatLab.
This is my code so far:
a = arduino('/dev/tty.usbmodem411');
i = 1;
axis = 1;
while (i == 1)
b = a.analogRead(0);
axis = axis +1;
plot(axis, b);
pause(1);
drawnow;
end
I figured I'd keep it simple by using a sample rate of 1Hz.
My Y axis is moving up and down dependant on the light sensor value and the x axis is incrementing by 1 every time the loop increments, but I can't actually see the graph actually drawing anything.

Assuming the code on the Arduino side is sending something ( check it out, please ), and that the arduino object points to the right port, try this changes:
a = arduino('/dev/tty.usbmodem411');
i = 1;
axis = 1;
while (i == 1)
b = a.analogRead(0);
axis = axis +1;
plot(axis, b,axis, b,'r*');
drawnow;
pause(1);
end

Try below code.
a = arduino('/dev/tty.usbmodem411');
interval = 1000;
passo = 1;
t=1;
x=0;
while (t<interval)
b = a.analogRead(0);
x=[x,b];
plot(x);
axis([,interval,500,500]);%500 and 500 are axis limits
t=t+passo;
drawnow;
end
