Below is my code, but in the graph the xticklabels are not equally spaced. Is it possible to force them to be equally spaced? Thank you

plot(rgdp/rgdp(end-4),rp,'.');
lsline;
xlabel('GDP per capita (US=1)');
ylabel('Non-agricultural value added per worker rel. to Agricultural');
axis([1/64 3/2 0 10]);
xtick = [1/64,1/32,1/16,1/8 ,1/4,1/2,1,3/2];
xtick_label = ['1/64';'1/32';'1/16';'1/8 ';'1/4 ';'1/2 ';'1 ';'3/2 '];

set(gca','XTick',xtick);
set(gca,'XTicklabel',xtick_label);

Also, I would use a cell array to hold the labels. This gives better alignment with the ticks as there is no extra spacing needed to preserve rectangularity.

xtick_label = {'1/64';'1/32';'1/16';'1/8';'1/4';'1/2';'1';'3/2'};

The ticks are a geometric progression, so to get them equispaced, you
must make the x-axis log either by using semilogx instead of plot or:
set(gca,'XScale','log')
