Indexing into arrays allows you to address portions of the elements of an array and treat this subset as an array itself, whether for calculations or input to other functions... read more >>

There continue to be questions on the MATLAB newsgroup regarding processing a set of files. So, for the record, and even though Steve covered this topic in his blog, I thought I'd get... read more >>

We might want to a write a function that mimics the behavior of another related function, specifically with respect to input shapes, etc. Ideally, we'd like to write it so we... read more >>

Last week I touched on the difference between using 1:N and [1:N] as the expression in a for statement. I have gotten enough more questions recently on how for works in MATLAB that it... read more >>

I had an interesting encounter with a colleague, Bob, last week. We were talking about timing some calculations and we realized that the written code was actually measuring... read more >>

Quick answer: when the result is a NaN. Contents NaNs in Arithmetic ... read more >>

In a follow up comment to the inverse mapping post, Lucio noted that loopFR could be fully vectorized and he is right. Rather than update that post directly, I thought I republish the... read more >>

I've written several blog articles so far on structures, and not quite so much on their soulmates, cell arrays. Just last week, at the annual MathWorks Aerospace Defense Conference (MADC), I had... read more >>

I am aware of frequent customer requests for replacing multiple values in an array. And the result should be compact code and execute quickly, right?! It came up again on... read more >>

I thought I'd showcase the publish tool in MATLAB this time around. It's how both Steve Eddins and I produce our blog articles most of the time. I find it particularly handy when I use... read more >>
