MATLAB Programming/Fundamentals of MATLAB/Basic MATLAB commands

Basic MATLAB command left|280x280px|Matlab Logo which is produced by the 3D surface plot During start to use the program, you may see "double greater than" symbols aka >> on the top left of command window. You can start to type simple or complex mathematic equation to your liking. Some of the examples are as follows: >> 6+3 - 4/2 ans = 7 >> sind(30) ans = 0.5000 or you may even assign a value to a variable / perform simple algebra equations >> x = 200 % assigning value 200 to variable x x = 200 >> y = 120 % assigning value 120 to variable y y = 120 >> p = x-y % make a simple subtraction equation where the x is subtract y equals to p p = 80 Note: You can learn more about MATLAB operator from this page: MATLAB Programming/Fundamentals of MATLAB/MATLAB operator Basic Commands These commands listed below are the commands that you usually will encounter when using MATLAB clc - Clear command window. clear - Remove all variable values from workspace disp - Display the values inside of the variable / matrix help - Display tooltip help text inside the Command Window. The help displays the help for the functionality specified by NAME, such as a function, operator symbol, method, class, or toolbox. Hello World Once Hello World, which is the simplest of programs, works the beginner can move on to explore the MATLAB workspaceImage:50%.svg available for developing or running Matlab code. Using the workspace the beginner can then learn to manipulate basic MATLAB VariablesImage:50%.svg. For convenience Matlab allows the workspace to be saved and loaded using *.mat files.Image:75%.svg
