The author has implemented skewness, kurtosis and checks answering appropriately to the critic.

how to store 10 or more random number in a loop a loop
for i = 1:n
mean(i) = input(’enter the mean value of distribution = ‘)
std(i) = input(’enter the std value of distribution = ‘)
p(j) = mean(i) + std(i)*randn(100,1);
end
how to make it work becoz there is string mismatch. Please tell me

Comment on MATLAB Basics: Adding a table to a GUI by Ben

Doug,

Thanks for the very helpful videos!

Uitables seem like a convenient way to make a customized property inspector for when there are lots of adjustable parameters in the application. This works well when the parameters all have the same format, otherwise to make use of the column formatting & input features we can only make a “transposed” version (side scrolling, not so pretty).

Having row formatting as an option would be nice. Are there any plans for this in future versions - or is there a better way to go about this?

Allstats has no checks, no comments and could also be improved (talking about prctile implementatio). Not to mention that a function which deserves an “all” prefix should at least include skewness and kurtosis.

Comment on MATLAB Basics video: Storing data in a matrix from a loop by Doug

@Leo,

Here is the “English version” of that code.

“vec = []” makes an empty variable named ‘vec’.

“vec = [vec val]” makes the variable ‘vec’ equal to the variable ‘vec’ and variable ‘val’ in a row. (This would fail if ‘vec’ was not already defined, thus the above line.) This was done in a loop, so the empty ‘vec’ is there for the first iteration really.

Dear Doug
I have a question in your code ‘October 9th, 2009 at 13:53′

vec = [];
vec = [vec val];

I don’t know the meaning of these statements.
I just started the matlab.
So, i don’t know well about matlab.
Could you tell me the meaning?

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar…

No really, helped me out a lot. As to what is better, I guess it depends on what takes you lesser time man. I’d have to agree with the others, a video is much easier to follow.

Thanks a lot!!!

@Lucy

I think this is what you seek to move a line with the mouse in MATLAB.
