This short video shows how to change the tick labels on a plot. You might want to do this for bar plots, or just a regular plot that you want to customize. if (typeof(playerLoaded) ===… read more >>
Lots of MATLAB functions want strings as inputs. Very often MATLAB users want to use the value of a variable in that string. This video tutorial shows how to do that. if (typeof(playerLoaded)… read more >>
When you have a bug that occurs in a script of function that takes a long time to run, you can use this technique to get to the bug faster in MATLAB. if (typeof(playerLoaded) === ‘undefined’) {var… read more >>
Even though you can have the output of one function act as the input to another directly, this can be confusing to read. Sometimes, using temporary variable will allow you to clarify your… read more >>
As with many math geeks, I am fascinated with games of “probability theory and applied psychology” (also known as Poker!). At a recent game this debate came out: “Does running it… read more >>
if (typeof(playerLoaded) === ‘undefined’) {var playerLoaded = false;}(function isVideojsDefined() {if (typeof(videojs) !== ‘undefined’) {videojs(“mathworks-brightcove-player”).on(‘loadedmetadata’,…
This short video shows an example of finding out if all or any of the values of a matrix are true in MATLAB. if (typeof(playerLoaded) === ‘undefined’) {var playerLoaded = false;}(function… read more >>
This video sets up the plan for how to find the closest point on a surface to a given point. This is a numerical approximation that avoids the inevitable complexities of solving the problem exactly… read more >>
Very often the process of coding in MATLAB is to start from a requirement, like “implement this formula”, to a script that is easily tested to a function that is more general and adds to… read more >>
Just a little trick that helps you get MATLAB figures easily into other programs by copying them to the clipboard. Could easily be made into a shortcut on the MATLAB toolbar. if… read more >>
