Matlab’s help features type “help” at the command prompt and Matlab returns a list of help topics
Matlab’s help features >> help lang Matlab’s language constructs
Matlab’s help features >> help for how to use Matlab’s “for” statement
Matlab’s help features you can also access “on-line” help by clicking the question mark in the toolbar separate window
MATLAB Variables all variables are stored in 32bit floating point format no distinction between real and integer >>a = 3; same assignment for “a” >>a = 3.0; Matlab is case sensitive >>A=3; Aa >>a=2;
MATLAB Variables can use numbers and underscore in variable names >>case34=6.45; OK >>case_34=6.45; names must start with a letter results in a syntax error >>34case=23.45; string (text) variables enclosed in single quotes. The variable is stored as array of characters >>title=‘This is the title’;
MATLAB Variables if a variable is defined, typing the variable name returns its value >>a=45.57; >>a a = 45.57 Matlab returns the value to clear a variable from memory >>a=4 >>clear a
MATLAB Variables Matlab will “echo” commands unless a semi-colon is used >>a=23.2; >> >>a=23.2 a = 23.2 >> Matlab echoes the command
MATLAB Variables Vectors column vectors row vectors >>a=[1;2;3]; >>a a = 1 2 3 >>a=[1,2,3]; >>a a = 1 2 3 use comma to separate columns use semi-colon to separate rows
MATLAB Variables Matrices 2-dimensional matrices >>a=[1,2,3;4,5,6]; >>a a = 1 2 3 4 5 6 again, separate columns with commas and rows with semi-colons
MATLAB Variables Indexing Matrix elements A vector is a special type of matrix row vector is a 1 x n matrix, 1 row n columns column vector is a n x 1 matrix, n rows 1 column >>a=[1,2,3]; >>a(2) ans = 2 could also reference by a(1,2) note, a(2,1) would produce an error because “a” only has one row
MATLAB Variables Indexing Matrix elements more examples >>a=[1,2,3;4,5,6]; assigning addressing >>a(2,2)=9; >>a a = 1 2 3 4 9 6 >>a(2,3) ans = 6
MATLAB Variables complex-valued numbers Typically, the variable “i” or “j” is used to represent the complex variable; e.g. Then, a complex number is represented as z = a + ib Re(z) = a Im(z) = b
MATLAB Variables complex-valued numbers Unless i or j has been previously defined, Matlab assigns i and j the complex variable value In Matlab, a complex variable is represented in the following format (assuming all variables are cleared) >>z=23+i*56; >>z z = 23.00 + 56.00i >>z=23+j*56; >>z z = 23.00 + 56.00i Matlab always uses the symbol “i” to represent a complex number
MATLAB Variables complex-valued numbers What happens in this case? What happens in this case? >>i=3; >> z=23+i*56; >>z z = >>a=sqrt(-1); >>z=23+a*56; >>z z =
MATLAB Variables complex-valued numbers Note, a real-valued number is a special case of a complex-valued number assigning any element of a matrix as complex-valued makes the entire matrix complex-valued >>a=[1,2]; >>a a = 1 2 >>a(1)=1+i*5; >>a a = 1.00+5.00i 2.00+0.00i
MATLAB Variables Advanced data types n-dimensional arrays structures cell arrays
MATLAB Operations Basic operations addition + subtraction - multiplication * division right division / left division \ ? >>a=3;b=4; >>c1=a/b; >>c2=a\b; c1=0.75 so, be careful! c2=1.3333….
MATLAB Operations Mixed Real and Complex valued Variables if both variables are real-valued, a real-valued result is obtained if one variable is complex-valued, Matlab recasts the real variable as complex and then performs the operation. The result is complex-valued however, the type casting is done internally, the real-valued variable remains real after the operation
MATLAB Operations Other (Scalar) Operations Math representation Matlab interpretation >>z=y^x; >>y=exp(x); >>y=log(x); >>y=log10(x) >>y=asin(x); >>y=acos(x); >>y=atan(x); >>y=sin(x); >>y=cos(x); >>y=tan(x);
MATLAB Operations Examples >>y=x^0.5; >>y=x^(1/2); >>y=sqrt(x); All variables in the preceding operations can be real or complex, negative or positive for x < 0, y is complex. Matlab assumes you allow complex valued numbers. If y is not to be complex, you must provide error checking.
MATLAB Operations Matrices Only matrices of the same dimension can be added and subtracted For multiplication, the inner dimensions must be the same Error No error >>D=A+C; >>D=A*B; >>D=B*A; >>D=A+B; >>D=A-B; >>D=A*C; >>D=C*A; Matrix multiplication not commutative
MATLAB Operations Left(\) and Right(/) Matrix “division” Math representation Matlab interpretation >>C=A\B; >>C=B/A; Remember, A must be square and full rank (linearly independent rows/columns)
MATLAB Operations Matrix Transpose Math representation Matlab interpretation >>C=A’; For complex-valued matrices, complex conjugate transpose >>b=a’; >>B=A’;
MATLAB m-files Two types of m-files script files collection of commands that Matlab executes when the script is “run” function files collection of commands which together represent a function, a procedure or a method Both types are separate files with a “.m” extension
MATLAB m-files To create an m-file, open the Matlab text editor Click on the “page” icon The Matlab text editor window will open
MATLAB m-files Script Files On the command line In the script file named test.m >>x=3.0; >>y=x^2; >>y y = 9.0 >> On the command line >>test y = 9.0 >>
MATLAB m-files Script Files script files share the workspace memory test.m script >>x=5.0; >>test >>y y = 25.0 >>
MATLAB m-files Script Files script files can call other script files inner.m script >>outter y = 36.0 >> outter.m script
MATLAB m-files Function Files Matlab identifies function files from script files by using the “function” and “return” keywords the name of the function file must be the same name as the function
MATLAB m-files Function Files The function file x2.m >>r=3; >>d=x2(r); >>d d = 9.0 >> >>h=x2(4.2); >>h h = 17.64 >>
MATLAB m-files Function Files Multiple Inputs and Outputs outputs in square brackets, [ ] inputs in parentheses ( )
MATLAB m-files Function Files variables created in the function are not retained in the workspace, except for the output variables the function does not have access to workspace variables, except for the inputs variables passed to the function are “copies” of the workspace variables. Changing their value inside the function has no effect on their value in the workspace.
MATLAB Flow Control The “while” and “if” statements if expression statements1 else statements2 end if expression statements end while expression statements end Matlab evaluates expression as logical “true” or “false” “false” equivalent to zero “true” equivalent to any non-zero number statements, any valid Matlab command
MATLAB Flow Control evaluating expression conditional operators any valid equation == equal to < less than > greater than <= less than or equal to >= greater than or equal to ~= not equal to a=4; b=5; c=5; if a+b if b-c “True” “False” watch out for round-off and word length error logical operators & and | or if sin(0) if sin(pi) sin(pi) = 1.22e-16 “False” “True” while(3<=a)&(a<=5)
MATLAB Flow Control The “for” statement for index = start : [increment :] end statements end index, start, increment, and end do not need to be integer valued increment is optional, if increment is not specified increment defaults to 1 index can be incremented positive (increment > 0) or negative (increment < 0) loop stops when index > end (or index < end)
MATLAB Flow Control example script file to cycle through x values function file to generate the y values
