How can I change the spacing/number of ticks in a figure?

This is basically what I want my graph to look like, but I can't get the yticks to align with the center of each bar so that they can be labeled properly. I've looked at previous posts and havent been able to find a solution.

graphValues=rand(24,1);
barh(graphValues)

This link should help:

yticks

It says you can specify the ticks on the y-axis. In your case it would be done as follows:

yticks([1:24])

Hope that helps!
