Task Description: %spray of Lines/ Rays

This document describes a MATLAB task to generate different plots by creatively using MATLAB functions and varying code parameters. The objectives are to learn how to plot graphs in MATLAB, visualize code results graphically, and obtain various patterns by varying parameters. The approach is to import MATLAB code into an m-file, simulate it to generate plots and patterns of various dimensions, and vary parameters to develop desired plots. Various built-in functions like "zeros" will be used to generate patterns, and trigonometric functions will develop visualizations by varying parameters over a length of values.

Task Description

Using MATLAB function creatively for generating different plots.

Learning Objectives

 Plotting graphs in MATLAB

 Visualizing code results graphically

 Varying parameters of code and obtaining various patterns

Approach

The MATLAB code shall be imported in the m-file and simulated. It will generate the plots and

patterns of various dimensions. The parameters shall be varied accordingly in order to develop

the desired plot.

Program Description

The program will use the various built in MATLAB functions like zeros in order to generate

various patterns. It will also use different trigonometric functions and develop the visualization

of parameters varied over a length of values.

Conclusion

This lab helped me in getting hands on practice of generating useful MATLAB plots. Using the

code listed provided me a chance of generating plots and improvising adjustments in code. In

this way I was able to learn more about MATLAB plotting power.
