How to Change Ticks for Y axis Only?

I have a script plotting two numpy arrays using list_plot on semilogx scale. I am plotting angle on Y axis so I want 30/60/90 ticks, but I don't know how to change ticks on Y axis only without typing in anything about x axis. I can't find information about this on sage manual.

OK, I solved it by adding

 ticks=[None, 30]

to the arguments of plot. There is one example in 2D Plotting page on manual, but it does not say it changes the Y axis and that None does not change the axis. A little bit unclear.

Good work! Can you suggest what a good example would be for adding to the manual? I agree that this is important to have clear.

For example(not tested), xx = np.logspace(1,100,1000) yy = np.linspace(-180,180,1000) list_plot(xx,yy,scale=semilogx,ticks=[None, 30])
