Question: Plot Tickmarks with Powers of 10

Question:Plot Tickmarks with Powers of 10

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a semilogplot-type plot with the axis tickmarks labeled as a typeset version of "10^0","10^-1","10^-2", etc.

I have tried a few different approaches. If I used semilogplot, I don't seem to be able to get the descending order of exponents (0,-1,-2, etc.) as I go right on the x-axis. They are also not typeset.

I can get around the descending order rather easily by just using plot and doing some remapping of my functions. I then get re-label the tickmarks to get the desired tickmark labels. The only problem is that Maple keeps evaluating the tickmarks (10^-1 get evaluated to 1/10, etc.).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
