MATLAB PRACTICAL

1) Write a program to assign the following expressions to a variable


A and then to print out

the value of A.

a. (3+4)/(5+6)

b. 2π2

c. √2

d.(0.0000123 + 5.67×10-3)× 0.4567×10-4

Soln.
a = (3+4)/(5+6)
fprintf("%d",a)

a = 2*(3.14 * 3.14)
fprintf("%d", a)

a = sqrt(2)
fprintf("%d", a)

a = (0.0000123 + 5.67 * 10^(-3)) * 0.4567 * 10^(-4)


fprintf("%d", a)

2) Celsius temperatures can be converted to Fahrenheit by


multiplying by 9, dividing by 5,

and adding 32. Assign a variable called C the value 37, and
implement this formula to

assign a variable F the Fahrenheit equivalent of 37 Celsius.

Soln.
C = 37

F = (C * 9/5) + 32
fprintf("%d %d", C,F)
3) Set up a vector called N with five elements having the values: 1,
2, 3, 4, 5. Using N,
create assignment statements for a vector X which will result in X
having these values:
a. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
b. 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2, 5/2
c. 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5
d. 1, 1/4, 1/9, 1/16, 1/25
Soln.

N = [1,2,3,4,5]
X = 2*N
disp(X)

X = N/2
disp(X)

X = N.^-1
disp(X)

X = N.^-2
disp(X)

4) A supermarket conveyor belt holds an array of groceries. The


price of each product (in
pounds) is [ 0.6, 1.2 ,0.5, 1.3 ] ; while the numbers of each product
are [ 3, 2 ,1 ,5 ]. Use
MATLAB to calculate the total bill.

N = [0.6,1.2,0.5,1.3]
X = [3,2,1,5]

bill = sum(N .* X)
fprintf("%d", bill)

5) The sortrows(x) function will sort a vector or matrix X into


increasing row order. Use this
function to sort a list of names into alphabetical order
Soln.

names = {'Alice', 'Charlie', 'Bob', 'Eve', 'David'}

sorted = sort(names)
disp(sorted)
6) The ―identity‖matrix is a square matrix that has ones on the
diagonal and zeros
elsewhere. You can generate one with the eye() function in
MATLAB. Use MATLAB to
find a matrix B, such that when multiplied by matrix A=[ 1 2; -1 0 ]
the identity matrix
I=[ 1 0; 0 1 ] is generated. That is A*B=I.

Soln.
A = [1, 2; -1, 0]

B = inv(A)

disp(B)

7) Create an array of N numbers. Now find a single MATLAB


statement that picks out from
that array the 1,4,9,16,...,√Nth entries, i.e. those numbers which
have indices that are
square numbers.
Soln.
n = 25
array = 1:n
result = array(rem(1:n, sqrt(n)) == 0)

8) Draw a graph that joins the points (0,1), (4,3), (2,0) and (5,-2).
Soln.
% Define the coordinates of the points
x = [0, 4, 2, 5];
y = [1, 3, 0, -2];

% Plot the points and join them with lines


plot(x, y, '-o'); % '-o' specifies a line with markers at data points

% Set axis limits (optional, adjust as needed)


axis([-1, 6, -3, 4]);

% Add labels to the points


text(x, y, num2str([1, 2, 3, 4]'), 'VerticalAlignment', 'bottom',
'HorizontalAlignment', 'right');

% Add labels to the axes


xlabel('X-Axis');
ylabel('Y-Axis');

% Add a title to the graph


title('Graph Joining Points (0,1), (4,3), (2,0), and (5,-2)');

% Display the grid (optional)


grid on;

% Show the graph


hold off; % Turn off hold if used elsewhere in your script

9) The seeds on a sunflower are distributed according to the


formula below. Plot a small circle at each of the
first 1000 co-ordinates :
rn = √n
θn = (137.51/180)πn
Soln.
% Number of circles to plot
numCircles = 1000;

% Initialize arrays to store x and y coordinates of the circles


xCoordinates = zeros(1, numCircles);
yCoordinates = zeros(1, numCircles);

% Calculate and store the coordinates


for n = 1:numCircles
r = sqrt(n);
theta = (137.51/180) * pi * n;
xCoordinates(n) = r * cos(theta);
yCoordinates(n) = r * sin(theta);
end

% Create a scatter plot of the circles


scatter(xCoordinates, yCoordinates, 10, 'filled'); % Adjust marker size as needed

% Set axis limits (optional, adjust as needed)


axis equal; % Ensure equal aspect ratio for circles

% Add labels to the axes (optional)


xlabel('X-Axis');
ylabel('Y-Axis');

% Add a title to the plot (optional)


title('Circles at the First 1000 Coordinates');

% Display the plot

10) Calculate 10 approximate points from the function y=2x by using


the formulae:
i. xn= n
ii. yn= 2n + rand - 0.5
Fit a line of best fit to these points using the function polyfit() with
degree=1, and
generate co-ordinates from the line of best fit using polyval(). Use
the on-line help to find
out how to use these functions. Plot the raw data and the line of
best fit.
Soln.

% Step 1: Generate 10 approximate points with random noise


n = 1:10; % n values from 1 to 10
x = n; % x values (xn = n)
y = 2 * n + rand(1, 10) - 0.5; % y values (yn = 2n + random noise)

% Step 2: Fit a line of best fit to the points using polyfit


degree = 1; % Degree of the polynomial (a straight line)
coefficients = polyfit(x, y, degree);

% Step 3: Generate coordinates from the line of best fit using polyval
x_fit = 1:10; % Generate x values for the line of best fit
y_fit = polyval(coefficients, x_fit); % Calculate y values using polyval

% Step 4: Plot the raw data and the line of best fit
figure; % Create a new figure
plot(x, y, 'o', x_fit, y_fit, '-'); % Plot raw data points ('o') and the line of
best fit ('-')
legend('Raw Data', 'Line of Best Fit'); % Add legend
xlabel('x'); % X-axis label
ylabel('y'); % Y-axis label
title('Raw Data and Line of Best Fit'); % Title of the plot
grid on; % Display grid
