I normally tend to the more serious side when making Picks of the Week and shy away from the games that are made with MATLAB. However, this week I was compelled to choose a game. It is a great… read more >>
This three minute video takes a look at the “Switch case” flow control statement and contrasts it with the more familiar “If elseif” flow control statement. Often times,… read more >>
GUIDE is the standard way of creating GUIs in MATLAB, but sometimes it is better to make the GUI programmatically. This often happens when you want to easily create and destroy buttons and other… read more >>
This is the next in a series of advanced topics in MATLAB. My definition of “Advanced” is somewhat nebulous and arbitrary, so even newer users can give this a watch. Two and a half… read more >>
This six and a half minute video shows a function being created in MATLAB, then it shows a subfunction being added. Functions are a way of adding to the MATLAB language. This video shows the creation… read more >>
I was working with a MATLAB user that had a large number of data points in the form of x,y,z triples. He was mostly interested in the density of these data points over the range of the data. At first… read more >>
This video shows how to use DEPLOYTOOL to create a project and compile it so that it can be used outside of MATLAB, meaning you can give it to someone that does not own MATLAB and they can still run… read more >>
This six minute video shows you how to use the debugger and other tools to step through complicated code and understand what is really going on. By taking a complicated expression and breaking it… read more >>
MATLAB is often used for post-test data analysis. You can get more value from your data acquisition session if you do the MATLAB analysis on the data as it is being collected. This can be done by… read more >>
Two minute video explains scalar and vector expansion. This helps in situations where you are adding a scalar to a matrix and shows how to expand a vector for a similar effect. if… read more >>
