The first day of learning MATLAB __ Base English __ [The base use]

The base window of MATLAB

Array

variable

current folder

command window

The percedence order of base operators

Lot of ways to get help

一、google

二、The search box of top right corner

三、help + command name 

For instance : help int 

log

log stands for natural log

If you want log base 10,you have to use log10(X)

Function List

Arithmetic

Trigonometry

Exponents and Logarithms

Complex Numbers

Cartesian Coordinate System Conversion

 Embedding Funcitons

condensed

MATLAB doesn't need to state the variable

Just need A = 10 OR A = B

The variable must be placed on the left

 Rules of variables

Upper case/Lower case repersent different variable

Can variable names can begin with a number?

No, even individual number is not allowed as variables.

Other ways of 

No,not even single numbers are allowed as variables.

 Numeric Variable (Data) Type

The default variable type is double.

Diagrams for other data types

Method to check data type of variables

一、Double-click the name of variable you want to query

二、Use the function of whos

using model

• Note: Keywords cannot be used as variable names

• Matlab does not generate error warnings even if you use the key-word as variable.
• After that,the key-word becomes an array-like name.
• The key-word will be restored after you use the clear commad

• 

• Tips: If just use single clear command,all variables will be cleared.

• Note: Key-word doesn't allowed as name of variables. 

• Some key-words are listed below

• 

 

 Some ambiguous and illegal expression as below

 Numeric Display "Format"

Some Format types as fallow

Explain:

shortE stands for short scientific notation

bank represents a dollar unit with only two decimal places

rat means to display the results in fractional form

 We use format + Style command to convert different formats.

Command Line Terminal

semicolon is used at the end of a statement to suppress immediate output.

The keyboard button "up" is used to invoke the last command.
