  2. Contents • What is Matlab • Matlab basic • Advanced usage of Matlab - plots - loops - working with m files - advanced functions

  3. Contents • What is Matlab • Matlab basic • Advanced usage of Matlab

  4. What is Matlab • Matrixlaboratory • easy to learn • robust • powerful functions

  5. Contents • What is Matlab • Matlab basic • Advanced usage of Matlab

  6. Get Help • Help - help - help function name (help abs)

  7. Basic Math Operations • To compute a math expression composed of numbers and mathematics operators • + addition • - subtraction • * multiplication • / division • ^ power • Compute (2+3-9)*7^2/4 • =-49

  8. General Math Expressions • To compute a math expression composed of numbers, variables and mathematics operators • Define all variables • The others are the same • E.g. x=3;y=6;x+y=? It is equivalent to 3+6

  9. Exercise in Class(1) • 5 minutes • x=123;y=234;z=345 • Write the command expression and get the result: 1) the sum of x and y 2) subtract y from z 3) the multiplication of x and z • Answer 1) x+y=357;2)z-y=111;3)x*z=42435

  10. Vectors and Matrices • Arrays are represented by some elements within brackets • The elements of each row is separated by at least one space • The separation of rows is by semicolons • E.g. [2 3;1 2]

  11. How to Retrieve Elements of Matrix 1 x=[1 2 3 4;5 6 7 8;9 10 11 12;13 14 15 16] What is the difference between x(2),x(1,2),x(:,2),x(2,:),x(1:2,2)?

  12. How to Retrieve Elements of Matrix 2 • Index begins from 1, not 0 • For matrix x: • x(i) is the ith element, counted along the column • x(i,j) is the element at the ith row and jth column • x(:,j) is all the elements at the jth column • x(i,:) is all the elements at the ith row • x(i1:i2,j) is those elements at the jth column, begins from index i1 to i2

  13. Vector and Matrix Operations • +,-,*,/ are used in operations between matrices • .*,./,.^ are used in operations between matrix elements • Pay attention to the dimensions of vectors and matrices

  14. Exercise in Class(2) • 10 mins • x=[1 2;3 4];y=[5 6;7 8]; • z1=[1 2 3];z2=[4 5 6]; 1)Sum of x and y 2) Product of x and y 3)Bitwise product of x and y 4) Bitwise division of z1 over z2 5) Bitwise division of z1 over z2, but for the first two elements only (both the expression and result) Answer:1) [6 8;10 12]; 2) [19 22;43 50]; 3) [5 12;21 32];4)[0.25 0.4 0.5]; 5) z1(1:2)./z2(1:2)=[0.25 0.4]

  15. Matrix Transpose • More operators other than +,-,*,/,^ • Matrix transpose:’(apostrophe)

  16. Contents • What is Matlab • Matlab basic • Advanced usage of Matlab

  17. Plot • plot(y) plots the columns of y versus their index • plot(x,y) plots vector y versus vector x • plot(x,y,s) plots vector y versus vector x, and s is a character string which states the line properties • plot(X1,Y1,S1,X2,Y2,S2,X3,Y3,S3,...) combines the plots defined by the (X,Y,S) triples, where the X's and Y's are vectors or matrices and the S's are strings.

  18. Color Options - Yellow - ‘y’ • Magenta - ‘m’ • Cyan - ‘c’ • Red - ‘r’ • Green - ‘g’ • Blue - ‘b’ • Black - ‘k’

  19. Line Styles - solid line (default) -- dashed line : dotted line -. dash-dot line

  20. Line Markings • + - plus sign • o - circle • * - asterisk • . - Point • x - cross • s - square • d - diamond • ^ - upward pointing triangle • v - downward pointing triangle • > - right pointing triangle • < - left pointing triangle • p - five-pointed star (pentagram) • h - six-pointed star (hexagram) • Combined use of color, line style, and line marking : ‘r+:’

  21. Example 1)t=0:0.1:4*pi; x=sin(t); plot(x);plot(t,x); plot(t,x,’r’); plot(t,x, 'c+:’); 2)x=1:1:10;y=2*x; plot(x,y,'r-');

  22. Exercise in Class 3 • 15 mins • Write a short program which plots 2 lines in a graph. Two cycles of sin wave and cos wave. • Useful function: plot, sin, cos • t=0:0.1:4*pi; x=sin(t);y=cos(t); • plot(t,x,'r+-',t,y,'bo-.');

  23. Grid • Grid or GRID ON adds major grid lines to the current axes. • GRID OFF removes major and minor grid lines from the current axes.

  24. Comment Functions • xlabel('text') adds text beside the x-axis on the current axis • ylabel('text') adds text beside the y-axis on the current axis • title('text') adds text at the top of the current axis • legend(string1,string2,string3, ...) puts a legend on the current plot using the specified strings as labels • text(x,y,'string') adds the text in the quotes to location (X,Y) on the current axes

  25. Axis • AXIS Control axis scaling and appearance. • AXIS([XMIN XMAX YMIN YMAX]) sets scaling for the x- and y-axes on the current plot. • AXIS OFF turns off all axis labeling, tick marks and background. • AXIS ON turns axis labeling, tick marks and background back on.

  26. Exercise in Class 4 • 15 mins • Write a short program which plots 2 lines in a graph. Two cycles of sin wave and cos wave. • Use as many functions as you can: plot, sin, cos, grid, xlabel, ylabel, grid, title, legend, text, axis • t=0:0.1:4*pi; • x=sin(t); • y=cos(t); • plot(t,x,'r+-',t,y,'bo-.'); • grid on; • xlabel('The Time'); • ylabel('The Amplitude'); • title('Sin Wave and Cos Wave'); • legend('Sin','Cos','Location','Best'); • axis([0,4*pi,-2,2]); • grid on; • text(3/4*pi,sin(3/4*pi),'\leftarrow Sin'); • text(9/4*pi,cos(9/4*pi),'\leftarrow Cos');

  27. Plots and Graphs – Con’t • HOLD ON holds the current plot and all axis properties so that subsequent graphing commands add to the existing graph. • HOLD OFF returns to the default mode whereby PLOT commands erase the previous plots and reset all axis properties before drawing new plots. • Figure or figure ( );

  28. Save Figures • Save manually • Use Function Print - print filename directs the output to the PostScript file designated by filename - print -dformat filename exports the figure to the specified file using the specified graphics format, (such as TIFF). e.g. print –dmeta filename print -deps filename

  29. Exercise in Class 5 • 5 mins • Generate a figure, and save it as ps file and emf file, respectively

  30. Plots and Graphs – Con’t One example, different views • Plot3() x=-1:0.1:1; y=-1:0.1:1; z=x.^2+y.^2; plot3(x,y,z); • Mesh(); contour(); meshc(); meshz(); Surf(); [x,y]=meshgrid(-1:0.1:1); z=x.^2+y.^2; mesh(x,y,z); • H = SUBPLOT(m,n,p), or SUBPLOT(mnp), breaks the Figure window into an m-by-n matrix of small axes, selects the p-th axes for the current plot, and returns the axis handle. The axes are counted along the top row of the Figure window, then the second row, etc.

  31. Basic Control Statements-for • for, end for variable=expression statement; end expression: initial value: increment: end value for i=1:5 for j=1:4 A(i,j)=1/(i+j-1); end end;

  32. Exercise in Class 6 • 10 mins • Write a for program to compute 0.5+1+1.5+2+…+50 • x=0; • for i=0.5:0.5:50 • x=x+i; • end

  33. Basic Control Statements-while • while, end while expression statement; end expression: a logical statement which is connected by ==,<,<=,>,>=,~=. x=1; while x<5 x=x+1; end

  34. Exercise in Class 7 • 10 mins • Write a while program to compute 0.5+1+1.5+2+…+50 • i=0.5;x=0; • while i<=50 • x=x+i; • i=i+0.5; • end

  35. Basic Control Statements-if • if, elseif, end IF expression statements ELSEIF expression statements ELSE statements END

  36. M Files • Put a bunch of commands in an .m file. • Run the file under the command window. • The using of ‘;’. • Write a function as an .m file. - file name is the function name - the first line defines the function function myresutl=myfunction(a, b); - the comment lines (start with %) follow the first line is shown when asking for help

  37. Exercise in Class • 10 mins • Write a m file to compute 0.5+1+1.5+2+…+50 • Run it
