  9. Example

  10. Linear Algebra, Vectors and Matrices • Few basic MATLAB Commands. • rank • det • inv • eig • diag Type “help matfun” (Matrix functions - numerical linear algebra) in the Command Window for more information, or type “help elmat” (Elementary matrices and matrix manipulation).

  11. Scripts and user defined functions • Scripts or m-files are text files containing MATLAB code. • Use the MATLAB Editor or another text editor to create a file containing the same statements you would type at the MATLAB command line. • Save the file under a name that ends with “.m”.

  12. MATLAB Editor

  13. MATLAB Script • A Script is a collection of MATLAB commands and functions that is bundled together in a m file. When you run the Script, all the commands are executed sequentially.

  14. MATLAB Script • In the Editor you create a sequence of MATLAB commands that you save as a m-file (the file extension ends with .m). Push the “Run” button when you want to run your program.

  15. MATLAB Script • If the code contains errors or warning the MATLAB compiler will let you know by displayingsome colors symbols to the right in the Editor • Running a m-file in the Command window (just type the name of the m-file and hit Enter to run the m-file)

  16. Activity • Create a Script (M-file) where you create a vector with random data and find the average and the standard deviation. Run the Script from the Command window.

  17. Functions • Operate on information (inputs) fed into them and return outputs • Have a separate workspace and internal variables that is only valid inside the function. • MATLAB includes more than 1000 built-in functions that you can use, but sometimes you need to create your own functions.

  18. Functions • To define your own function in MATLAB, use the following syntax: • how to declare a function with one input and one output • how to declare a function with multiple inputs and multiple outputs

  19. Example • Here is a simple example. • Note! The function name (add) and the name of the file (“add.m”) need to be identical.

  20. Example

  21. Activity • Create a function called “linsolution” which solve

  22. Activity • Create a function calc_averagethat finds the average of two numbers.

  23. Activity • Create a function circle that finds the area in a circle based on the input parameter

  24. Plotting • Plotting is a very important and powerful feature in MATLAB.

  25. Example

  26. Activity • In the Command window (or use the Script Editor) in MATLAB window input the time from t=0 seconds to t=10 seconds in increments of 0.1 seconds as follows: • Then, compute the output y as follows: • Use the Plot command:

  27. Plotting Multiple Data Points in One Graph • In MATLAB it is easy to plot multiple data set in one graph.

  28. Hold Command • Another approach is to use the hold command.

  29. Activity • Given the following differential equation: • where , where T is the time constant. • The solution for the differential equation is: • Set T=5 and initial condition x(0)=1. • Create a Script in MATLAB (.m file) where you plot the solution x(t) in the time interval Add Grid, and proper Title and Axis Labels to the plot.
