This is certainly easy enough  - does matlab also support

    >> axis([-inf, 5, 0, 10]).

in which case on the lower xlim is set automatically and the upper
xlim is 5?

    Shin> And, any specific reason there is no xlim or ylim function?

I didn't know matlab had them :-( I'll add them.  In the meantime:

  ax.set_xlim((xmin, xmax))

or 
  
  set(gca(), 'xlim', (xmin, xmax))

or 

  set(ax, xlim=(xmin, xmax))

and so on ...
