Lecture 2

The document provides a series of MATLAB plotting examples, demonstrating how to create various plots using different styles, colors, and markers. It includes instructions on using subplots to display multiple graphs in a single figure and explains the significance of different line styles and markers. Additionally, it covers basic loop structures for summing elements in an array.

Lecture 2: Plotting

1.
clc;
clear all;
close all;
x = 1:0.1:10; % creating an array of elements from 1 to 10 with 0.1 increment
y = x.^2 + 20*x + 15*x.*sin(x); %computing a function of x
plot(x,y, 'Linewidth', 2) % plotting the figure

Task: significance of dots in y.


Change the plotting line:
plot(x, y, 'Color', 'r', 'LineStyle', '--', 'Marker', 'o')
 Predefined color strings: 'r' (red), 'g' (green), 'b' (blue), 'c' (cyan), 'm' (magenta), 'y'
(yellow), 'k' (black), and 'w' (white).
 '-' for solid line.
 '--' for dashed line.
 ':' for dotted line.
 '-.' for dash-dot line.
 'o' for circle.
 '*' for star.
 '+' for plus sign.
 'x' for cross.
 's' for square.
 Run this:
x = 0:0.1:10;
y = cos(x);
plot(x, y, 'b:', 'Marker', 's', 'MarkerSize', 8, 'MarkerEdgeColor', 'k', 'MarkerFaceColor',
'g');
xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('Cosine Wave');
grid on;
xlim([0, 10]); % Set x-axis limits
ylim([-1, 1]); % Set y-axis limits
2. Subplotting
Example 1:
clc;
clear all;
close all;
t = -10:0.01:10; %defining time variable
signal1 = t.^2; % signal1 = t^2
signal2 = t.^3+4*t.^2+5; % signal2 = t^2+2*t+sqrt(t)
subplot(2,1,1)
plot(t, signal1, 'Linewidth', 2) % it will plot the signal in the top portion of the window
subplot(212) %note that (2,1,2) or (212) both are correct
plot(t, signal2, 'Linewidth', 2)
Example 2:
clc;
close all;
clear all;
x=linspace(-2*pi, 2*pi);
subplot(2,2,1)
y1=sin(x);
plot(x,y1, 'r')
xlabel('time');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('Sinusoidal signal');
grid on;
subplot(2,2,2)
y2=sin(4*x);
plot(x,y2, 'b')
xlabel('time');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('4*Sinusoidal signal');
grid on;
subplot(2,2,3)
y3=cos(x);
plot(x,y3)
xlabel('time');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('Cosine signal');
grid on;
subplot(2,2,4)
y4=cos(4*x);
plot(x,y4)
xlabel('time');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('4*Cosine signal');
grid on;
Example 3:
clc;
close all;
clear all;
t=0:0.02:4;
y=sin(pi*t);
plot(t,y, 'rd')
hold on %to draw multiple figures in a single figure
z=sin(pi*t+2*pi/3);
plot(t,z, 'b--')
hold on
m=sin(pi*t+4*pi/3);
plot(t,m, 'g')
hold off;
legend('0 phase', '120 phase', '240 phase')
xlabel('time');
ylabel('Amplitude');
title('plot of curves');
grid on;

3. Loop
clc;
clear all;
close all;
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]; % given array
n = length(a) % length gives the length of the vector
sum = 0; % initializing the sum
for i = 1:n %remember in matlab indices start from 1
sum = sum + a(i) %computes the sum
end % every for loop has an end!
