1. Use of Mathematics using Technology (Maltlab)

2. What is Maltlab ?
MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a fourth- generation high-level programming language and interactive environment for numerical computation, visualization and programming.
MATLAB is developed by Math Works .
It allows matrix manipulations; plotting of functions and data; implementation of algorithms; creation of user interfaces; interfacing with programs written in other languages, including C, C++, Java, and FORTRAN; analyze data; develop algorithms; and create models and applications.

3. Advantage of Maltlab Ease to use . Platform Independence .
Predefined Functions.
Device-Independent Plotting.
Graphical User Interface.
MATLAB Compiler.

4. Disadvantages of Maltlab
MATLAB has two principal disadvantages:
The first is that it is an interpreted language and therefore may execute more slowly than compiled languages.
The second disadvantage is cost: a full copy of MATLAB is five to ten times more expensive than a conventional C or Fortran compiler.

7. Use of Semicolon (;) in MATLAB
Semicolon (;) indicates end of statement. However, if you want to suppress and hide the MATLAB output for an expression, add a semicolon after the expression .
Example : x = 3;

8. Adding Comments
The percent symbol (%) is used for indicating a comment line.
For example : x = 9 % assign the value 9 to x

9. Commonly used Operators and Special Characters
MATLAB supports the following commonly used operators and special characters .
Operator Purpose
+ Plus; addition operator.
- Minus; subtraction operator.
* Scalar and matrix multiplication operator.
/ Right-division operator.

10. Variables In MATLAB environment, every variable is an array or matrix.
You can assign variables in a simple way.
For example : x = 3 % defining x and initializing it with a value.

11. Creating Matrices A matrix is a two-dimensional array of numbers.
In MATLAB, a matrix is created by entering each row as a sequence of space or comma separated elements, and end of a row is demarcated by a semicolon.
For example, let us create a 2-by-2 matrix as:
m = [1 2 ; 4 5 ; 7 8 ]
MATLAB will execute the above statement and return the following result:
m =
1 2
4 5

12. Relational Operators
Relational operators can also work on both scalar and non-scalar data. Relational operators for arrays perform element-by-element comparisons between two arrays and return a logical array of the same size, with elements set to logical 1 (true) where the relation is true and elements set to logical 0 (false) where it is not.
The following table shows the relational operators available in MATLAB:
Operator Description
< Less than
<= Less than or equal to
> Greater than
>= Greater than or equal to
== Equal to
~= Not equal to

13. Vector Operations
In this section, let us discuss the following vector operations:
Addition and Subtraction of Vectors
You can add or subtract two vectors.
Both the operand vectors must be of same type and have same number of elements.
Example
Create a script file with the following code:
A = [7, 11, 15, 23, 9]; display (C);
B = [2, 5, 13, 16, 20]; display (D);
C = A + B;
D = A - B;
When you run the file, it displays the following result:

14. MATRIX A matrix is a two-dimensional array of numbers.
In MATLAB, you create a matrix by entering elements in each row as comma or space delimited numbers and using semicolons to mark the end of each row.
For example, let us create a 4-by-5 matrix a:
a = [ ; ; ; ]
MATLAB will execute the above statement and return the following result:
a =

15. Addition and Subtraction of Matrices
You can add or subtract matrices. Both the operand matrices must have the same number of rows and columns.
Example
Create a script file with the following code:
a = [ ; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
b = [ ; 2 0 8; 5 7 1];
c = a + b ;
d = a - b ;
