plot values in the loop

Hello
my code is something like this
p=3
for k=1:p
%something
if %something
d=d+1
elseif %something
d=d-2
end
plot(k,d,'o')
hold on
end
I get three values of d corresponding to three values of k. I want to plot these values so that the x axies will be the values of k and the y axis will be the values of d
The thing is, with this code I get only points, but I want to link them with lines. How can I do that?
Thank you

the easiest way is to store your variables in a vector with each iteration and plot them at the end of for loop, in this way they will be joined together

I've tried with vectors, but the thing is,,, d is a variable that is defined in a separate function file,, and when I make it a vector, it gives me errors

do
plot(k,d,'o-')
instead, that will give you o's connected by lines.

p=3 ;
k = 1:p ;
val = zeros(1,p) ;
for i = 1:length(p)
%something
if %something
d=d+1
val(i) = d ;
elseif %something
d=d-2
val(i) = d ;
end
end
plot(k,val,'-o')

end
plot(k,val,'-o')
and there is also one function
function u=u_p(x,x_e,N,d)
u = -(x-x_e).^2+N.*d;
end
