INTRODUCTION TO MATLAB Introduction to MATLAB 2  It is an interactive, integrated, environment • for numerical/symbolic, scientific computations and other apps. • shorter program development and debugging time than traditional • • • • programming languages such as FORTRAN and C. slow (compared with FORTRAN or C) because it is interpreted. automatic memory management; no need to declare arrays. intuitive, easy to use. compact notations. Introduction to MATLAB  Latest version is MATLAB 2014a  For Windows: double click MATLAB icon  For Linux clusters: scc1% matlab  Either case spawns a MATLAB window with >> prompt. >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> 3 Introduction to MATLAB 4  Variables  case sensitive, NAME and Name are 2 distinct names. • variable begins with a , A2z or a2z • can be a mix of letters, digits, and underscores ( vector_A) [] () , @ # $& ^ • reserved characters: % = + – ~ ; : ! • up to 63 characters • Commands/Functions/scripts • performs specific tasks; same naming rules as for variables  File names command files should be named with a suffix of ".m", . An m-file typically contains a sequence of MATLAB commands that will be executed in order • A file may contain a collection of commands, functions • A file may also be just data (strings, numbers • 5 Introduction to MATLAB , • Some characters are • • • • • by for various purposes. Some as arithmetic or matrix operators: =, +, , *, / , \ and others are used to perform a multitude of operations. Reserved characters cannot be used in variable or function names. They may have multiple uses. >> >> >> a= 3 >> >> >> >> >> d= 6 Introduction to MATLAB • >> x= 1 3 5 7 • >> y= 3 4 5 1 4 2 5 3 6 • >> X= • >> ans = 6 9 6 Introduction to MATLAB >> >> >> x= 1 2 3 >> ans = 2 >> ans = 6 3 7 Introduction to MATLAB • >> Volume in drive C has no label.

Only script-, function-, and mat-files are covered here: 1.script m-files (.m) -- group of commands; reside in base workspace 2.function m-files (.m) -- memory access controlled; parameters passed as input, output arguments; reside in own workspace and 3.mat files (.mat) -- binary (or text) files handled with 4.mex files (.mex) -- runs C/FORTRAN codes from m-file 5.eng files (.eng) -- runs m-file from C/FORTRAN code 6.C codes (.c) – C codes generated by MATLAB compiler 7.P codes (.p) – converted m-files to hide source for security
