function [sum,prod]= my name (a,b,c)
sum = a+b+c;

Q

for loop syntax

while loop syntax

all conditional statements

A

repeat a statement for a fixed number of times.

for m=1:3
num=1/(m+1)
end
OUTPUT:
num = 0.5000
num = 0.3333
num = 0.2500

while loop:
repeatedly executes statements while condition is true.
a = 10;
while(a < 15)
fprintf(‘value of a: %d\n’, a);
a = a + 1;
end
%d is a format specifier, d in this case is integer
\n is next line

all conditional statements
decides whether a particular block of code
has to be executed or not, based on Boolean
condition. condition is true, it executes
if-else
» number = 25
if number<20
fprintf(‘The number is greater than 20’)
else
fprintf(‘The number is not less than 20’)
end
if-elseif-elseif-else-end

number of end statements depend on the number of if statements

28
Q

why is a dot used in graph plotting and numerical integration

A

scaler: single value,
vector: 1D-array

MATLAB can only do multiplication on matrix, when ever there is a vector quantity u need to put a dot

Dots are used in MATLAB to specify element-wise operations when working with vectors or matrices.
.*, .^, ./

special case:
trigonometric functions like neither vectors nor matrices themselves. Instead, they are element-wise functions

and exp also

but exp(-x.^2 - y.^2);
inside u should still but dot for these
and sin(-x.^2 - y.^2);

Q

why is syms used

and why is ode used

A

syms command is used to define symbolic variables. These are variables that represent mathematical symbols rather than numeric values. Symbolic variables allow you to perform symbolic computations, such as differentiation, integration, algebraic manipulation,

ODE in MATLAB refers to solving Ordinary Differential Equations numerically or symbolically. MATLAB offers various built-in functions and tools for handling ODEs.

Evaluation of Beta function

  1. Compute the beta function for integer arguments n=3 and m=1,…,10.
A
  1. beta(2,3) ans = 0.0833
  2. beta(2,5) ans = 0.0333
  3. beta(0,1) ans = Inf

4) MATLAB CODE:
format rat
B = beta((1:10)’,3)
‘ => for nums to be vertical/next line

OUTPUT:
B= 10*1…
