Sometimes you will do a calculation where the answer looks like ‘0’ or ‘1’ or some other number like that. The natural thing to do is to do a test like this: if (answer ==… 続きを読む >>
In this short video, I explore the math behind this joke: An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The 1st orders a 1 beer. The 2nd orders 1/2 a beer. The 3rd orders … 続きを読む >>
I love getting well formed question and challenges from fellow MATLAB users. This week I got one that works very well as a video. The problem was trying to index into a vector with a vector of… 続きを読む >>
I think it is best to do these tutorials based on solving realistic coding challenges. In helping to write the code for the next MATLAB contest, I had a situation where I wanted two images to be… 続きを読む >>
A question that comes across my inbox from time to time is how to save the state of a GUI between session. There are few methods for doing this, one is using the HGSAVE command to save the .FIG file… 続きを読む >>
