Making a Multi-color Line in MATLAB 5

This video is a follow on to last week’s. Instead of making a line with different colored markers in MATLAB, we will be making a multi-color line in MATLAB. This is actually stretchig the… read more >>

Coloring a line based on height, gradient, or some other value in MATLAB 8

MATLAB Answers is a great resource for getting help from the MATLAB community. There was a recent question that inspired this video. I took the question to mean, how can I change the color of a… read more >>

Finding infrequent errors in MATLAB with DBSTOP if error

Some errors happen in MATLAB infrequently. If you don’t know the conditions when they occur, setting a breakpoint might not work. Using DBSTOP if error will have MATLAB stop on a line in the… read more >>

Bad coding practices to avoid

I was revisiting older posts, and this is one of my most frequently referenced posts.

I teach the MATLAB 101 class to every new hire at MathWorks. Inevitably, someone will ask me how to make a… read more >>

Vintage Videos: Still relevant

There are certain timeless questions about MATLAB. I was just asked about this and knew I had made a video about changing object properties in GUIDE.
if (typeof(playerLoaded) === ‘undefined’) {var… read more >>

Simple example of storing data as a matrix or structure

When we design a program, the way we store our data will have an effect on how our code looks as we manipulate that data later. In this video we had the choice to store the coordinates of a robot… read more >>

Vectorizing code in MATLAB

When you vectorize code, you avoid looping through an array and instead do operations on the matrix level. This avoids for loops in MATLAB. The reason for vectorizing are often stylistic…. read more >>

Adding callbacks to lines and axes in MATLAB 8

A callback is a function that gets called when you perform certain actions. For instance, you might want something to happen when you click on a line in MATLAB, or when you move the mouse in MATLAB…. read more >>

Interuptable callbacks and BusyAction in MATLAB 5

If you push a button in a MATLAB UI and this starts a long calculation, what do you want to have happen if the user pushes the button a second time? Interuptable property and BusyAction property of… read more >>

Using synthetic data to test algorithms in MATLAB 2

This week we are making up some data and doing a couple of visualizations. We then modify the data to do a reality check on a simple algorithm. This allows us to gain confidence in our algorithm… read more >>
