I'm pleased to introduce Damian Sheehy as this week's guest blogger. Damian is a geometry developer at The MathWorks, his background is in the area of geometric modeling and... 더 읽어보기 >>

When I first started working at MathWorks, there were already a few functions in MATLAB for working with polynomials. One of these, polyval, for polynomial evaluation, used... 더 읽어보기 >>

Recently, Steve wrote a blog discussing code clarity/obscurity in the context of one-line code solutions. Simply stated, the problem he solved is this. Find the largest value in an... 더 읽어보기 >>

I recently wrote a pair of posts (1 and 2) about finding roots of equations, and how you might use MATLAB to explore this topic with emphasis on the method of fixed point iteration. ... 더 읽어보기 >>

In a recent post, I started a series of posts about finding roots of equations, and how you might use MATLAB to teach some of this topic. In particular, I will... 더 읽어보기 >>

I've been interested in teaching for a long time, including ways to use MATLAB. One concept that students might need to understand early in their college careers is that of... 더 읽어보기 >>

Have you ever tried to overlap more than one plot, only to find that you had to fiddle with a few times before it looked right? Perhaps this is because you aren't... 더 읽어보기 >>

When I got to work last Friday, I saw an email discussion, on behalf of a customer, trying to find a good way to add a new field to a struct array.... 더 읽어보기 >>

I recently posted about optional input arguments and how to override default values. Gautam mentioned wanting to allow empty inputs as defaults. Contents ... 더 읽어보기 >>

Last week, I wrote a post on the switch statement in MATLAB. One theme in the comments was about using switch (or not!) for setting default values for input arguments that users didn't initialize. I realized that there is a nice pattern for setting these values that uses some compact, but readable code.... 더 읽어보기 >>
