If Statement:

If statement is a condition statement which is basic flow in all the languages. It

is the base of almost all the programing, because we need some conditions by
which the software or machines should work in this case we use the if
statements.
Matlab syntax is somewhat unique.
if condition
commands
end
no need for parenthese: command blocks are between reserved words.
Programs:
If x > 1
X is greater then 1;
End

If x < 1
X is less then 1;
End

If x = 0
Turn off the fan;
End
If x = 1
Turn on the fan;
End
If / else statement:
If / else statement is also a condition statement. We use it for two information
in one time or one condition. If we need some information in a condition but
also we need some other information against that condition if the first
condition will false then we use if / else statement.
Syntax:
If condition
Command1
Else
Command 2
End

Programs:
If name == “shah fahad”
Unlock the system;
else
“ you are wrong person”;
End

If x == 1
“The number is one”;
else
“the number is not one”;

If class room < 10

Add more students;
else
the class room is full;

If / else if statement:
if / else if statement is a conditions statement, which is use for multiple
condition at a time. If we need multiple information from computer in the
base of conditions we use if / else if statement.
Syntax:
If condition 1
Commands 1
Elseif condition 2
Commands 2
Else
Commands 3
End

Programs:
If name == “shah fahad”
“you are civil department student”;
elseif name == “ Hamza”
“you are fsc student”;
elseif name == “junaid”
“you are electrical department student”;
else
“not in record”;
End

If x > 1
 y = x – 5;
elseif x < 6
y = x + 5;
else
y = 0;
end

if x > 1 && x< 3

x = 2;
elseif x > 4 && < 6
x = 5;
elseif x < 4 && x > 2
x = 3;
else
x = 0;
end

Switch statement:
Switch statement is also use for condition. Its work almost the same as if/
elseif statement. In some places we use switch statement instead of if/elseif
statement for time consuming it take less time than if/elseif statement.
Syntax:
Switch expression
Case1 expression 1
Case2 expression 2

Otherwise
End

Programs:

Switch A
Case “hi”
Msgbox(“he says hi”)
Case “ bye”
Msgbox(“he says bye”)
Otherwise
Msgbox(nothing)

End

For loop:
Use for a known number of iterations. It make command to execute
repeatedly.
Matlab syntax:
For n = 1 : 100
Commands
End
The loop variable:
Is defined as a vector
Is a scalar within the command block
Does not have to have consecutive values but cleaner if they are consecutive

Nested for loop:

For m = 1:5
For n = 1:7
A(m,n) = 1/(m+n-1);
End
End

Programs:
Forii = 1:1:25
A(ii) = [ii,ii^2];
End
Nested for loop
Forii = 1:1:25
Forii = [1 3 5 6]
A(ii) = ii*ii;
End
End

While loop:
The while is like a more general for loop: don’t need to Know number of
iterations
Syntex:
While condition
Commands
End
The command block will execute while the conditional expression is true. It is a
loop but it is a conditional loop.
Beware of indefinite loops.

Problems:
n = 1;
Y = zeros(1,10);
While n <= 10
Y(n) = 2*n/(n+1);
n = n+1;
end
x = 1;
while x
% execute statements
End

X = 1;
While (x^<10)
y = x^2;
plot(x,y,z’or’); hold on
x = x+1;
end
