Is it possible to plot data from multiple scripts on to a single figure?

Hi everyone, I'm a relatively new MATLAB user. I was wondering if it was possible to plot data from three scripts on to a single figure. It's for a numerical methods problem, where the same problem with the same domain is being solved using 3 different numerical schemes. I've written three different scripts and each produces a plot. I was wondering if I could display all 3 on a single graph.

You can save the figure into a .fig file by using savefig function.

You can also retains plots in the current axes by "hold on" command.

% script file 1
x = 1:0.01:pi*2;
plot(x, sin(x));

savefig('myfig.fig'); % save current figure into a .fig file

% script file 2
openfig('myfig.fig'); % load the .fig file
hold on
x = 1:0.01:pi*2;
plot(x, cos(x));

But I have three different script files, how do I get the data on to a single plot? I thought hold on was for when you're plotting multiple data points in the same script

Save figure and contents to FIG-file - MATLAB savefig (mathworks.com)

how about saving the figure into a .fig file?

Thank you! This seems like it might solve my problem, thanks alot!
