Question

I have a 24x2 matrix in matlab. I need to represent this data in a table but also make sure that each of the rows are colored on various hues of a colors (like a heat map) based on the values of the second column.

Is there a matlab function that can render such table figures?
Or is there any other language or tool that can support such a facility?

Answer 1

Here is what finally worked for me.

The trick I used is I made the first column values as labels to each row (similar to giving labels on y axis) and the made each cell representing the value by a hue of a color.

For example: If we chose to use red. The cells will be colored dark red for a high value and white for a zero value and goes on for various intermediate values.

This served my purpose and gave quite a few options for customizing just enough for my work.
