6. Quick Introduction to Matlab
Create variable
>> a=1
a = 1
 >> b=2, c=9
b = 2
c = 9
>> g = c - b -a
g = 6
>> h = cos(g)
h =
Defining a Vector
>> v = [3  1 1]
v =
     3     1    1
 >> u = [1 2 3 4 5]
u =
     1     2   
>> u=1:5
>> w = 2:3:15
w =
Defining Matrices
>> A = [ 1 2 3; 3 4 5; 6 7 0]
A =
     1     2     3
     3     4     5
     6     7     0

7. Script file in Matlab Example Solve the quadratic equation
Solve quadratic
>> a=3; b=10; c=3;
>> discr = b^2 - 4*a*c
discr = 64
>> sq_discr = sqrt(discr)
sq_discr = 8
>> x1 = ( - b + sq_discr ) / ( 2*a )
x1 =
>> x2 = ( - b - sq_discr ) / ( 2*a )
x2 = -3
Example
