MATLAB
 MATLAB is a program for doing numerical
computation. It was originally designed for solving
linear algebra type problems using matrices. It’s
name is derived from MATrix LABoratory.
MATLAB has since been expanded and now has
built-in functions for solving problems requiring data
analysis, signal processing, optimization, and several
other types of scientific computations. It also
contains functions for 2-D and 3-D graphics and
animation.

MATLAB
Everything in MATLAB is a matrix !
6
MATLAB
 The MATLAB environment is command oriented
somewhat like UNIX. A prompt appears on the screen and
a MATLAB statement can be entered. When the <ENTER>
key is pressed, the statement is executed, and another
prompt appears.
 If a statement is terminated with a semicolon ( ; ), no
results will be displayed. Otherwise results will appear
before the next prompt.
7
The MATLAB User Interface
8
MATLAB
To get started, type one of these commands: helpwin,
helpdesk, or demo
» a=5;
» b=a/2
b =
2.5000

9
MATLAB Variable Names
 Variable names ARE case sensitive
 Variable names can contain up to 63 characters (as of
MATLAB 6.5 and newer)
 Variable names must start with a letter followed by letters,
digits, and underscores.
10
MATLAB Special Variables
ans Default variable name for results
pi Value of 
eps Smallest incremental number
inf Infinity
NaN Not a number e.g. 0/0

Math & Assignment Operators
Power ^ or .^ a^b or a.^b
Multiplication * or .* a*b or a.*b
Division / or ./ a/b or a./b
or  or . ba or b.a
NOTE: 56/8 = 856
- (unary) + (unary)
Addition + a + b
Subtraction - a - b
Assignment = a = b (assign b to a)
13
Other MATLAB symbols
>> prompt
. . . continue statement on next line
, separate statements and data
% start comment which ends at end of line
; (1) suppress output
(2) used as a row separator in a matrix
: specify range
14
MATLAB Relational Operators
 MATLAB supports six relational operators.
Less Than <
Less Than or Equal <=
Greater Than >
Greater Than or Equal >=
Equal To ==
Not Equal To ~=
15
MATLAB Logical Operators
 MATLAB supports three logical operators.
not ~ % highest precedence
and & % equal precedence with or
or | % equal precedence with and
16
MATLAB Matrices
 MATLAB treats all variables as matrices. For our purposes
a matrix can be thought of as an array, in fact, that is how
it is stored.
 Vectors are special forms of matrices and contain only one
row OR one column.
 Scalars are matrices with only one row AND one column
17
MATLAB Matrices
 A matrix with only one row AND one column is a scalar. A
scalar can be created in MATLAB as follows:
» a_value=23
a_value =
23
18
MATLAB Matrices
 A matrix with only one row is called a row vector. A row
vector can be created in MATLAB as follows (note the
commas):
» rowvec = [12 , 14 , 63]
rowvec =
12 14 63
19
MATLAB Matrices
 A matrix with only one column is called a column vector.
A column vector can be created in MATLAB as follows
(note the semicolons):
» colvec = [13 ; 45 ; -2]
colvec =
13
45
-2
20
MATLAB Matrices
 A matrix can be created in MATLAB as follows (note the
commas AND semicolons):
» matrix = [1 , 2 , 3 ; 4 , 5 ,6 ; 7 , 8 , 9]
matrix =
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
21
Extracting a Sub-Matrix
 A portion of a matrix can be extracted and stored in a
smaller matrix by specifying the names of both matrices
and the rows and columns to extract. The syntax is:
sub_matrix = matrix ( r1 : r2 , c1 : c2 ) ;
where r1 and r2 specify the beginning and ending rows
and c1 and c2 specify the beginning and ending columns
to be extracted to make the new matrix.
22
MATLAB Matrices
 A column vector can be
extracted from a matrix.
As an example we create a
matrix below:
» matrix=[1,2,3;4,5,6;7,8,9]
matrix =
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
 Here we extract column 2
of the matrix and make a
column vector:
» col_two=matrix( : , 2)
col_two =
2
5
8
23
MATLAB Matrices
 A row vector can be
extracted from a matrix.
As an example we create
a matrix below:
» matrix=[1,2,3;4,5,6;7,8,9]
matrix =
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
 Here we extract row 2 of
the matrix and make a
row vector. Note that
the 2:2 specifies the
second row and the 1:3
specifies which columns
of the row.
» rowvec=matrix(2 : 2 , 1 :
3)
rowvec =
4 5 6

Topics..
 What is MATLAB ??
 Basic Matrix Operations
 Script Files and M-files
 Some more Operations and Functions
APPLICATIONS:
 Plotting functions ..
 Image Processing Basics ..
 Robotics Applications ..
 GUI Design and Programming
25
Use of M-File
 There are two kinds of M-files:
Scripts, which do not accept input
arguments or return output arguments. They
operate on data in the workspace.
Functions, which can accept input
arguments and return output arguments.
Internal variables are local to the function.
Click to create
a new M-File
26
M-File as script file
Save file as filename.m
Type what you want to
do, eg. Create matrices
If you include “;” at the
end of each statement,
result will not be shown
immediately
Run the file by typing the filename in the command window
27
Reading Data from files
 MATLAB supports reading an entire file and creating a
matrix of the data with one statement.
>> load mydata.dat; % loads file into matrix.
% The matrix may be a scalar, a vector, or a
% matrix with multiple rows and columns. The
% matrix will be named mydata.
>> size (mydata) % size will return the number
% of rows and number of
% columns in the matrix
>> length (myvector) % length will return the total
% no. of elements in
myvector

 whos List known variables plus their size
 help >> help sqrt Help on using sqrt
 lookfor >> lookfor sqrt Search for
keyword sqrt in m-files
 what >> what a: List MATLAB files in a:
 clear Clear all variables from work space
 clear x y Clear variables x and y from work space
 clc Clear the command window
30
Some Useful MATLAB commands
 what List all m-files in current directory
 dir List all files in current directory
 ls Same as dir
 type test Display test.m in command window
 delete test Delete test.m
 cd a: Change directory to a:
 chdir a: Same as cd
 pwd Show current directory
 which test Display directory path to ‘closest’
test.m
31
MATLAB Logical Functions
 MATLAB also supports some logical functions.
xor (exclusive or) Ex: xor (a, b)
Where a and b are logical expressions. The xor
operator evaluates to true if and only if one
expression is true and the other is false. True is
returned as 1, false as 0.
any (x) returns 1 if any element of x is nonzero
all (x) returns 1 if all elements of x are nonzero
isnan (x) returns 1 at each NaN in x
isinf (x) returns 1 at each infinity in x
finite (x) returns 1 at each finite value in x
32
Matlab Selection Structures
 An if - elseif - else structure in MATLAB.
Note that elseif is one word.
if expression1 % is true
% execute these commands
elseif expression2 % is true
% execute these commands
else % the default
% execute these commands
end
33
MATLAB Repetition Structures
A for loop in MATLAB for x = array
for ind = 1:100
b(ind)=sin(ind/10)
end
while loop in MATLAB while expression
while x <= 10
% execute these commands
end
x=0.1:0.1:10; b=sin(x); - Most of the loops can be
avoided!!!
34
Scalar - Matrix Addition
» a=3;
» b=[1, 2, 3;4, 5, 6]
b =
1 2 3
4 5 6
» c= b+a % Add a to each element of b
c =
4 5 6
7 8 9
35
Scalar - Matrix Subtraction
» a=3;
» b=[1, 2, 3;4, 5, 6]
b =
1 2 3
4 5 6
» c = b - a %Subtract a from each element of b
c =
-2 -1 0
1 2 3
36
Scalar - Matrix Multiplication
» a=3;
» b=[1, 2, 3; 4, 5, 6]
b =
1 2 3
4 5 6
» c = a * b % Multiply each element of b by a
c =
3 6 9
12 15 18
37
Scalar - Matrix Division
» a=3;
» b=[1, 2, 3; 4, 5, 6]
b =
1 2 3
4 5 6
» c = b / a % Divide each element of b by a
c =
0.3333 0.6667 1.0000
1.3333 1.6667 2.0000
38
The use of “.” – “Element” Operation
Given A:
Divide each element of
A by 2
Multiply each
element of A by 3
Square each
element of A

Convolution
The behavior of a linear, continuous-time, time-invariant system with
input signal x(t) and output signal y(t) is described by the convolution
integral
- h(t), assumed known, the response of the system to a unit impulse
input
For example,
x = [1 1 1 1 1];  [1 1 1 1 1]
h = [0 1 2 3];  [3 2 1 0]
conv(x,h)
yields y = [0 1 3 6 6 6 5 3]
stem(y);
ylabel(‘Conv');
xlabel(‘sample number’);
