Starting MATLAB

Using MATLAB as a calculator

>> a=2*3a =6

Symbol Operation Example

+ Addition 7+3

- Subtraction 3-2

* Multiplication 3*7

/ Division 3/7

Creating MATLAB variables

Variable name = value(expression)Example:>> x=2x = 2>> x=y^2+y+3

Matrix operations

• Matrix operations can be performedExample:>> A=[1 0;0 1]A = 1 0 0 1
