Plotting with pcolor or similar plotting tool

I want to plot this data, so that these values show in rectangular grids

1070 5088 5720 6047 3859
507  376  454  297  588

With pcolor I would require three rows to create a 2x5 rectangular grid (and from bottom to top, not top to bottom).

How can I plot this data as displayed, in a 2x5 rectangular grid

Thanks for any answers :)

As you found out, pcolor() chops off the last column and last row of your data and is not suitable. Use imshow() instead:

m=[1070 5088 5720 6047 3859
507  376  454  297  588]
imshow(m, [], 'InitialMagnification', 1600)
colormap(jet(256));
colorbar;
axis on;
% Enlarge figure to full screen.
set(gcf, 'Units', 'Normalized', 'OuterPosition', [0 0 1 1]);
% Give a name to the title bar.
set(gcf, 'Name', 'Demo by ImageAnalyst', 'NumberTitle', 'Off')

Note: axes tick marks indicate the center of the pixels, so the center of the lower left pixel is located at x=1, y=2.

That's great, how do you make the colours 50% transparent? Thanks :)

Also, how can I get it so the y axis ascends on the bottom, i.e. 0.5 to 2.5 vertically? Thanks :)
