The right frame of mind: You will not be able to say at the end of workshop that you know
MATLAB but rather that you have been exposed to MATLAB (I don’t know MATLAB myself, I’m just using it…)
Use MATLAB’s “help”, this is your first stop Second stop: search the web for examples that come close to
what you need You learn how to use MATLAB by using it, that’s why the start might
be slow and at times frustrating

Function Code
Script and Function Files
• Script Files• Work as though you typed commands into
MATLAB prompt
• Variable are stored in MATLAB workspace
• Function Files• Let you make your own MATLAB Functions
• All variables within a function are local
• All information must be passed to functions as parameters
• Subfunctions are supported
The concept of Workspace
• At any time in a MATLAB session, the code has a workspace associated with it
• The workspace is like a sandbox in which you find yourself at a certain point of executing MATLAB
• The “Base Workspace”: the workspace in which you live when you execute commands from prompt
• Remarks:
• Each MATLAB function has its own workspace (its own sandbox)
• A function invoked from a calling function has its own and separate workspace (sandbox)
• A script does not lead to a new workspace (unlike a function), but lives in the workspace from which it was invoked
Variable Types in MATLAB• Local Variables
• In general, a variable in MATLAB has local scope, that is, it’s only available in its workspace
• The variable disappears when the workspace ceases to exist
• Recall that a script does not define a new workspace – be careful, otherwise you can step on variables defined at the level where the script is invoked
• Since a function defines its own workspace, a variable defined in a function is local to that function
• Variables defined outside the function should be passed to function as arguments. Furthermore, the arguments are passed by value
• Every variable defined in the subroutine, if to be used outside the body of the function, should be returned back to the calling workspace
Variable Types in MATLAB• Global Variables
• These are variables that are available in multiple workspaces
• They have to be explicitly declared as being global
• Not going to expand on this, since using global variables is a bad programming practice
• A note on returning values from a function• Since all variables are local and input arguments are passed by value,
when returning from a function a variable that is modified inside that function will not appear as modified in the calling workspace unless the variable is either global, or declared a return variable for that function

Exercise 3: A debug session (10 minutes)
Use the function demoBisect provided on the next slide to run a debug session Save the MATLAB function to a file called
demoBisect.m in the current directory Call once the demoBisect.m from the MATLAB
prompt to see how it works>>help demoBisect>>demoBisect(0, 5, 30) Place some breakpoints and run a debug session
Step through the code, and check the values of variables
Use the MATLAB prompt to echo variables Use dbstep, dbcont, dbquit commands
function xm = demoBisect(xleft,xright,n)% demoBisect Use bisection to find the root of x - x^(1/3) - 2%% Synopsis: x = demoBisect(xleft,xright)% x = demoBisect(xleft,xright,n)%% Input: xleft,xright = left and right brackets of the root% n = (optional) number of iterations; default: n = 15%% Output: x = estimate of the root

The “inline” Utility
• inline function » f = inline('3*sin(2*x.^2)','x')
f = Inline function: f(x) = 3*sin(2*x.^2)» f(2)ans = 2.9681
» f = inline('3*sin(2*x.^2)','x')
f = Inline function: f(x) = 3*sin(2*x.^2)» f(2)ans = 2.9681
Use char function to convert inline object to string
• Numerical Integration using quad» Q = quad('1./(x.^3-2*x-5)',0,2); » F = inline('1./(x.^3-2*x-5)'); » Q = quad(F,0,2);» Q = quad('myfun',0,2)
» Q = quad('1./(x.^3-2*x-5)',0,2); » F = inline('1./(x.^3-2*x-5)'); » Q = quad(F,0,2);» Q = quad('myfun',0,2)
function y = myfun(x)
y = 1./(x.^3-2*x-5);
Note:quad function use adaptive Simpson quadrature
Root Finding, Optimization…fzero finds a zero of a single variable function
fun is inline function or m-function
fminbnd minimize a single variable function on a fixed interval. x1<x<x2
fminsearch minimize function w/ several variables
Use optimset to determine options parameter.
[x,fval]= fzero(fun,x0,options)
[x,fval]= fminbnd(fun,x1,x2,options)
[x,fval]= fminsearch(fun,x0,options)

Ordinary Differential Equations
(Solving Initial Value Problem)
An explicit ODE with initial value:
Using ode45 for non-stiff functions and ode23t for stiff functions.
[t,y] = solver(odefun,tspan,y0,options)
[initialtime finaltime]
Initialvluefunction dydt = odefun(t,y)
•Use odeset to define options parameter
ODE Example:
» [t,y]=ode45('myfunc',[0 20],[2;0])» [t,y]=ode45('myfunc',[0 20],[2;0])
function dydt=myfunc(t,y)dydt=zeros(2,1);dydt(1)=y(2);dydt(2)=(1-y(1)^2)*y(2)-y(1);

Example:
plot(x1, y1, 'clm1', x2, y2, 'clm2', ...)plot(x1, y1, 'clm1', x2, y2, 'clm2', ...)
x=[0:0.1:2*pi];y=sin(x);z=cos(x);plot(x,y,x,z,'linewidth',2)title('Sample Plot','fontsize',14);xlabel('X values','fontsize',14);ylabel('Y values','fontsize',14);legend('Y data','Z data')grid on

Displaying Multiple PlotsNomenclature:
Figure window – the window in which MATLAB displays plots Plot – a region of a window in which a curve (or surface) is
displayed
Three typical ways to display multiple curves in MATLAB (other combinations are possible…)
One figure contains one plot that contains multiple curves Requires the use of the command “hold” (see MATLAB help)
One figure contains multiple plots, each plot containing one curve
Requires the use of the command “subplot” Multiple figures, each containing one or more plots, each
containing one or more curves Requires the use of the command “figure” and possibly “subplot”
SubplotsSyntax:
»subplot(2,2,1);
» …
»subplot(2,2,2)
» ...
»subplot(2,2,3)
» ...
»subplot(2,2,4)
» ...
»subplot(2,2,1);
» …
»subplot(2,2,2)
» ...
»subplot(2,2,3)
» ...
»subplot(2,2,4)
» ...
subplot(rows,cols,index)subplot(rows,cols,index)
The “figure” Command
Use if you want to have several figures open for plotting
The command by itself creates a new figure window and returns its handle>> figure
If you have 20 figures open and want to make figure 9 the default one (this is where the next plot command will display a curve) do >> figure(9)>> plot(…)
Use the command close(9) if you want to close figure 9 in case you don’t need it anymore
Surface Plot Examplex = 0:0.1:2;y = 0:0.1:2;[xx, yy] = meshgrid(x,y);zz=sin(xx.^2+yy.^2);surf(xx,yy,zz)xlabel('X axes')ylabel('Y axes')
x = 0:0.1:2;y = 0:0.1:2;[xx, yy] = meshgrid(x,y);zz=sin(xx.^2+yy.^2);surf(xx,yy,zz)xlabel('X axes')ylabel('Y axes')

Graphics Objects
1. Upon Creation
2. Utility Functions 0 - root object handle gcf - current figure handle gca - current axis handle gco - current object handle
3. FINDOBJ
Obtaining an Object’s Handle
h_obj = findobj(h_parent, 'Property', 'Value', ...)
h_line = plot(x_data, y_data, ...)
What is the current object? • Last object created
OR• Last object clicked
Default = 0 (root object)
Modifying Object Properties
• Obtaining a list of current properties:
• Obtaining a list of settable properties:
• Modifying an object’s properties Using Command Line
Using Property Editor
get(h_object)
set(h_object)
set(h_object,'PropertyName','New_Value',...)

String Array Concatenation
Using [ ] operator:Each row must be same length
Row separator:semicolon (;)
Column separator:space / comma (,)
For strings of different length:• STRVCAT• char
» new_str3 = strvcat(str, str2)new_str3 =Hi there, Isn't MATLAB great?
» new_str3 = strvcat(str, str2)new_str3 =Hi there, Isn't MATLAB great?

Working with String Arrays
String Comparisons strcmp: compare whole strings strncmp: compare first ‘N’ characters findstr: finds substring within a larger string
Converting between numeric & string arrays: num2str: convert from numeric to string array str2num: convert from string to numeric array
