Jiro’s live seminar, part 4 of 9: Automating plots with code generation

There is nothing like seeing an expert MATLAB user in action to learn plenty of tips and tricks about using MATLAB. Not everyone can get to one of our free live seminars, so Jiro and I made this recording. We will be presenting the 37 minutes of video in a series of 9 short, daily videos here on the blog.

This video shows how to automate plotting by generating the m-code that will recreate the plot from the last step. This code is then customized for this application.

All the videos in the series are located here.

This is a new kind of video for this blog. We would like to know how the viewing experience compares to the Webinars, live seminars and other videos we have presented to you. Please let us know in the comments!

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
