Command History…

2010 11
Getting Started with simple
arithmetic..
z Best way is to start from
the command prompt.
z Let a=5, b=10;
z It is an example of
variable assignment. In
C/ C++ such
assignments re possible
only after declaration of
the variables.
z c=a+b;
z c;

2010 12
Data Types Supported……
z Variable-
z integer,
z floating point,
z character,
z strings.

2010 13
Integers….data types…
z Integers are used as unsigned 8-bit

integer. No signs are associated by
definition. The values of a UINT8 range
from 0 to 255. Other such types are
UINT16, UINT32, INT8, INT16, INT32. A
complete list of data types supported can
be obtained by typing
z help datatype at the command promt.

2010 14
Vectors…
z X=[1 2 3 4 5 6 7];
z X(1)=1, 1st element
z X(3)=3
z X(5)=5, 5th element;
z To plot the vector X,
simply type plot (x) in
the command
window. The plot will
be as in fig.

2010 15
More on vectors.
z Let X=1:2:10; It
means assign vector
X values between 1
and 10 at gaps of 2.
z Y=2*X means Y will
be assigned all the
values of X multiplied
by two.

2010 16
Addition of vectors.. They must be of
same length
z Let X1=1:5
z Let X2=1:6
z X3=X1+X2;
z Output will be

2010 17
More on vectors…
z Let X=1:5;
z To square all the
elements in the
vector simply type
Y=X.^2

2010 18
Vectors.. cont
z To change a row
vector to a column
vector, just type X'

2010 19
Vector Multiplication….
z Let X=1:5;
z Let Y=2*X;
z Z=X.*Y; It assigns
the value of the
product between the
vectors X and Y.

2010 20
Use of certain built-in functions.
z To calculate the cosine of a vector X, simply

type cos(X). To plot the value of cos(x), simply
type plot (cos (X)).

2010 21
A few more built-in functions….
z Sin(x) to find the sin of
each of the elements of
the vector X
z Log (x) to find the log of
each of the elements of
the vector X. Also there
is the provision of finding
log base 10.
z exp(X) to find the
exponential of vector X

2010 22
Built-in functions and use
z Mean (X) to find the

mean value of the
vector X
z Sum (X) to add all
the elements in the
vector X.

2010 23
Built-in functions….
z Built-in functions have there own

documentation.
z Accessed by simply typing,
z say for sum, help sum at the command
prompt.

2010 24
Difficulty with using Matlab from
command prompt
z Longer programs cannot be written.
z Previous steps cannot be modified.
z Solution is to use the Matlab editor to
write longer programs.

2010 25
Matlab editor
z It can be started
by simply clicking
the new graphic
in the menu bar.
It starts a new/
blank editor
window.

2010 26
First program in the Matlab
editor..
z clc means clear
screen
z Clear all means
clear all previously
declared variables.
z Close all means
close all previously
opened graphic
windows.

2010 27
First program..
z X=1:10 is a vector
declaration, then
find its cosine
values are
assigned to a new
variable x1 and
then plot. The
figure call opens a
graphic window.

2010 28
First program….
z Nest to save, click the
save icon or go to file
option and use save as..,
create a folder and save
the program by a name.
z To run the program simple
click the run icon after
saving. During run, the
Matlab compiler will itself
prompt to save the
program if not saved by a
name and if no so will also
save all modifications
done there after.

2010 29
Special Values
z MATLAB includes a number of predefined special values.
z Can be used at any time without initializing them.
z Stored in ordinary variables.
z They can be overwritten or modified by a user.
z If a new value is assigned to one of these variables, then that
new value will replace the default one in all later calculations.
>> circ1 = 2 * pi * 10;
>> pi = 3;
>> circ2 = 2 * pi * 10;
Never change the values of predefined variables.

2010 30

Vectors and Matrices.. Multiplication
& Addition
z Multiplicationand addition of vectors and
matrices must follow strict rules.
z You add A row vector cannot be added
to a column vector.
z For multiplication the number of columns
must be equal to the number of rows

2010 46
& Addition…..
z >> v = [1 2 3]‘
z Ans v = 1 2 3
z >> b = [2 4 6]‘
z Ans b = 2 4 6
z >> v+b
z Ans = 3 6 9
z >> v-b
z ans = -1 -2 -3

2010 47
& Addition…..
z v*b is not permitted.
z A display will come as
z ??? Error using ==> *Inner matrix
dimensions must agree.
z >> v*b‘
z ans = 2 4 6 4 8 12 6 12 18
z >> v'*b
z ans = 28

2010 48
Matlab and Calculus.... Differentiation
zA built in function diff can be used. DIFF-

Difference and approximate derivative.
z DIFF(X), for a vector X, is [X(2)-X(1)
X(3)-X(2) ... X(n)-X(n-1)].
z DIFF(X), for a matrix X, is the matrix of
row differences,
[X(2:n,:) - X(1:n-1,:)].

2010 49
Matlab and Calculus.... Differentiation…..example
zh = .001;
z x = 0:h:pi;
z diff(sin(x.^2))/h
z It means differentiation of sin x2 w.r.t h
for given values of h and x.

2010 50
Matlab and Calculus....
Differentiation…..example
z INLINE function- INLINE Construct

INLINE object. INLINE(EXPR) constructs
an inline function object from the
MATLAB expression contained in the
string EXPR. Examples:
z g = inline('t^2') gives g (t) = t^2
z g = inline('sin(2*pi*f + theta)') gives
g (f, theta) = sin(2*pi*f + theta)
2010 51
Differentiation…..example
z >> syms x, (SYMS Short-cut for

constructing symbolic objects.)
z f=inline('x^3', 'x')
z diff (f(x))
z ans = 3*x^2

2010 52
Differentiation… use of Dsolve
z DSOLVE is Symbolic solution of ordinary

differential equations.
z DSOLVE('eqn1','eqn2', ...) accepts symbolic
equations representing ordinary differential
equations and initial conditions.
z By default, the independent variable is 't'.

2010 53
Differentiation… use of
Dsolve…..example
z dsolve ('Dx = -a*x') returns
ans = exp(-a*t)*C1
z The letter 'D' denotes differentiation with
respect to the independent variable, i.e.
usually d/dt. A "D" followed by a digit
denotes repeated differentiation; e.g., D2
is d^2/dt^2.
z Initial conditions are specified by
equations like 'y(a)=b' or 'Dy(a) = b'
2010 54
Differentiation… use of
Dsolve…..example
z For the equation xy’ + 1=y, the dsolve
symbolic ODE can be written as
dsolve('x*Dy + 1 =y', 'x') which returns
ans = 1+x*C1
z Y = dsolve('Dy = y^2*(1-y)') returns Y =
t+1/y-log(y)+log(-1+y)+C1=0

2010 55
Dsolve…..example
z dsolve('Df = f + sin(t)', 'f(pi/2) = 0')

z dsolve('D2y = -a^2*y', 'y(0) = 1, Dy(pi/a) = 0')
z S = dsolve('Dx = y', 'Dy = -x', 'x(0)=0', 'y(0)=1')
z S = dsolve('Du=v, Dv=w, Dw=-u','u(0)=0,
v(0)=0, w(0)=1')
z w = dsolve('D3w = -w','w(0)=1, Dw(0)=0,
D2w(0)=0')
z y = dsolve('D2y = sin(y)'); pretty(y)

2010 56
Calculus with Matlab…..Use of
Solve
z SOLVE Symbolic solution of algebraic
equations.
z solve ('p*sin(x) = r') chooses 'x' as the
unknown and returns ans = asin(r/p)
z [x,y] = solve('x^2 + x*y + y = 3','x^2 - 4*x + 3 =
0') returns
x= [ 1]
[ 3]
y = [ 1]
[ -3/2]

z INT Integrate.
z Example:
syms x x1 alpha u t;
A = [cos(x*t),sin(x*t);-sin(x*t),cos(x*t)];
int(1/(1+x^2)) returns ans = atan(x)
z Example: int(‘x^2’, ‘x’) returns ans =
1/3*x^3

2010 58
INT….
z For definite integration-
z syms x, int(exp(-x^4), 0, 1) returns ans =
int(exp(-x^4),x = 0 .. 1). For its numeric
integration quadl() can be used.
z QUADL- Numerically evaluate integral,
adaptive Lobatto quadrature.
z Q = QUADL(FUN,A,B) tries to approximate
the integral of function FUN from A to B to
within an error of 1.e-6 using high order
recursive adaptive quadrature.

2010 59
INT and QUADL….example
z syms x, int(exp(-x^4), 0, 1);
z quadl(vectorize(exp(-x^4)), 0, 1) returns
ans = 0.8448
z Other forms of use of QUADL are
z Q = quadl('1./(x.^3-2*x-5)',0,2);
z F = inline('1./(x.^3-2*x-5)');
Q = quadl(F,0,2);

2010 60
Multiple integration using Matlab
z For expressions of the following type
π 2π
f ( x, y ) = ∫ π∫ ( x cos
0
y + y sin x )dydx
dblquad maybe used for numerical double integration

2010 61
Multiple integration using
Matlab….example
z Q = dblquad(inline('y*sin(x)+x*cos(y)'),
pi, 2*pi, 0, pi) which returns Q = -9.8696
