Preface
Kermit Sigmon, author of the MATLAB® Primer, passed
away in January 1997. Kermit was a friend, colleague,
and fellow avid bicyclist (although I’m a mere 10-mile-a-
day commuter) with whom I shared an appreciation for
the contribution that MATLAB has made to the
mathematics, engineering, and scientific community.
MATLAB is a powerful tool, and my hope is that in
revising our book for MATLAB 7.0, you will be able to
learn how to apply it to solving your own challenging
problems in mathematics, science, and engineering.

A team at The MathWorks, Inc. revised the Fifth Edition


for MATLAB Version 5 in November of 1997. I carried
on Kermit’s work by creating the Sixth Edition of this
book for MATLAB 6.1 in October 2001, and now this
Seventh Edition for MATLAB Version 7.0.

This edition highlights the many new features of


MATLAB 7.0, and includes new chapters on features that
were in prior versions of MATLAB but not in prior
editions of this book. New or revised topics in this
edition include:
• calling Java from MATLAB, and using Java objects
inside the MATLAB workspace
• many more graphics examples, including the seashell
on the cover of the book
• cell publishing for reports in HTML, LaTeX,
Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Powerpoint
• powerful suite of code development tools (such as the
M-Lint code checker, the file dependency and
comparison reports, and a profile coverage report)

iii
• volume and vector visualization
• calling Fortran code from MATLAB
• parametric curves and surfaces, and polar plots of
symbolic functions
• polynomials, interpolation, and numeric integration
• solving non-linear equations with fzero
• solving ordinary differential equations with ode45
• the revised MATLAB Desktop
• short-circuit logical operators
• integers and single precision floating-point
• more details on the colon operator
• linsolve, for solving specific linear systems
• the new block comment syntax
• function handles (@), which are now simpler to use
• anonymous functions
• image, and a pretty Mandelbrot set example
• the new 4-output sparse lu
• abstract symbolic functions
• nicely-formatted tables using fprintf
• a revised list of all primary functions and operators in
MATLAB.
I would like to thank Penny Anderson at The MathWorks,
Inc. for her detailed review of this book.

Introduction
MATLAB®, developed by The MathWorks, Inc.,
integrates computation, visualization, and programming
in a flexible, open environment. It offers engineers,
scientists, and mathematicians an intuitive language for
expressing problems and their solutions mathematically
and graphically. Complex numeric and symbolic
problems can be solved in a fraction of the time required
with a programming language such as C, Fortran, or Java.

How to use this book: The purpose of this Primer is to


help you begin to use MATLAB. It is not intended to be
a substitute for the online help facility or the MATLAB
documentation (such as Getting Started with MATLAB,
available in printed form and online). The Primer can
best be used hands-on. You are encouraged to work at
the computer as you read the Primer and freely
experiment with the examples. This Primer, along with
the online help facility, usually suffices for students in a
class requiring the use of MATLAB.

Start with the examples at the beginning of each chapter.


In this way, you will create all of the matrices and M-files
used in the examples. Some examples depend on code
you write in previous chapters.

Larger examples (M-files and MEX-files) are on the web


at http://www.cise.ufl.edu/research/sparse/MATLAB and
http://www.crcpress.com.

Pull-down menu selections are described using the


following style. Selecting the Desktop menu, and then
the Desktop Layout submenu, and then the Default

v
menu item is written as Desktop ► Desktop Layout ►
Default.

You should liberally use the online help facility for more
detailed information. Pressing the F1 key or selecting
Help ► MATLAB Help brings up the Help window. You
can also type help or doc in the Command window. See
Sections 2.1 or 22.26 for more information on how to use
the online help.

How to obtain MATLAB: Version 7.0 (Release 14) of


MATLAB is available for Microsoft Windows (XP, 2000,
and NT 4.0), Unix (Linux, Solaris 2.8 and 2.9, and HP-
UX 11 or 11i), and the Macintosh (OS X 10.3.2 Panther).
A Student Version is available for all but Solaris and HP-
UX; it includes MATLAB, Simulink, and key functions
of the Symbolic Math Toolbox. Everything discussed in
this book can be done in the Student Version of
MATLAB, with the exception of advanced features of the
Symbolic Math Toolbox discussed in Section 16.13.

1. Accessing MATLAB
On Unix systems you can enter MATLAB with the
system command matlab and exit MATLAB with the
MATLAB command quit or exit. In Microsoft
Windows and the Macintosh, just double-click on the
MATLAB icon:

2. The MATLAB Desktop


MATLAB has an extensive graphical user interface.
When MATLAB starts, the MATLAB window will
appear, with several subwindows and menu bars.

All of MATLAB’s windows in the default desktop are


docked, which means that they are tiled on the main
MATLAB window. You can undock a window by
selecting the menu item Desktop ► Undock or by
clicking its undock button:

Dock it with Desktop ► Dock... or the dock button:

Close a window by clicking its close button:

Reshape the window tiling by clicking on and dragging


the window edges.

1
The menu bar at the top of the MATLAB window
contains a set of buttons and pull-down menus for
working with M-files, windows, preferences and other
settings, web resources for MATLAB, and online
MATLAB help. If a window is docked and selected, its
menu bar appears at the top of the MATLAB window.

If you prefer a simpler font than the default one, select


File ► Preferences, and click on Fonts. Select
Lucida Console (on a PC) or DialogInput (on Unix)
in place of the default Monospaced font, and click OK.
2.1 Help window
This window is the most useful window for beginning
MATLAB users, and MATLAB experts continue to use it
heavily. Select Help ► MATLAB Help or type doc. The
Help window has most of the features you would see in
any web browser (clickable links, a back button, and a
search engine, for example). The Help Navigator on the
left shows where you are in the MATLAB online
documentation. Online Help sections are referred to as
Help: MATLAB: Getting Started: Introduction, for
example. Click on the beside MATLAB in the Help
Navigator, and you will see the MATLAB Roadmap (or
Help: MATLAB for short). Printable versions of the
documentation are available under this category (see
Help: MATLAB: Printable Documentation (PDF)).

You can also use the help command, typed in the


Command window. For example, the command help
eig will give information about the eigenvalue function
eig. See the list of functions in Chapter 22 for a brief
summary of help for a function. doc is similar, except
that it displays information in the Help Browser. You can

2
also preview some of the features of MATLAB by first
entering the command demo or by selecting Help ►
Demos, and then selecting from the options offered.

2.2 Start button


The Start button in the bottom left corner of the
MATLAB Desktop allows you to start up demos, tools,
and other windows not present when you start MATLAB.
Try Start: MATLAB: Demos and run one of the demos
from the MATLAB Demo window.
2.3 Command window
MATLAB expressions and statements are evaluated as
you type them in the Command window, and results of
the computation are displayed there too. Expressions and
statements are also used in M-files (more on this in
Chapter 7). They are usually of the form:
variable = expression

or simply:
expression

Expressions are usually composed from operators,


functions, and variable names. Evaluation of the
expression produces a matrix (or other data type), which
is then displayed on the screen or assigned to a variable
for future use. If the variable name and = sign are
omitted, a variable ans (for answer) is automatically
created to which the result is assigned.

A statement is normally terminated at the end of the line.


However, a statement can be continued to the next line
with three periods (...) at the end of the line. Several

3
statements can be placed on a single line separated by
commas or semicolons. If the last character of a
statement is a semicolon, display of the result is
suppressed, but the assignment is carried out. This is
essential in suppressing unwanted display of intermediate
results.

Click on the Workspace tab to bring up the Workspace


window (it starts out underneath the Current Directory
window in the default layout) so you can see a list of the
variables you create, and type this command in the
Command window:
A = [1 2 3 ; 4 5 6 ; -1 7 9]

or this one:
A = [
1 2 3
4 5 6
-1 7 9]

in the Command window. Either one creates the obvious


3-by-3 matrix and assigns it to a variable A. Try it. You
will see the array A in your Workspace window.
MATLAB is case-sensitive in the names of commands,
functions, and variables, so A and a are two different
variables. A comma or blank separates the elements
within a row of a matrix (sometimes a comma is
necessary to split the expressions, because a blank can be
ambiguous). A semicolon ends a row. When listing a
number in exponential form (e.g., 2.34e–9), blank
spaces must be avoided in the middle (before the e, for
example). Matrices can also be constructed from other
matrices. If A is the 3-by-3 matrix shown above, then:

4
C = [A, A' ; [12 13 14], zeros(1,3)]

creates a 4-by-6 matrix. Try it to see what C is. The


quote mark in A' means the transpose of A. Be sure to
use the correct single quote mark (just to the left of the
enter or return key on most keyboards). Since a blank
separates elements in a row, parentheses are sometimes
needed around expressions if they would otherwise be
ambiguous. See Section 5.1 for the zeros function.

When you typed the last two commands, the matrices A


and C were created and displayed in the Workspace
window.

You can save the Command window dialog with the


diary command:

diary filename

This causes what appears subsequently in the Command


window to be written to the named file (if the filename
is omitted, it is written to a default file named diary)
until you type the command diary off; the command
diary on causes writing to the file to resume. When
finished, you can edit the file as desired and print it out.
For hard copy of graphics, see Section 12.10.

The command line in MATLAB can be easily edited in


the Command window. The cursor can be positioned
with the left and right arrows and the Backspace (or
Delete) key used to delete the character to the left of the
cursor.

A convenient feature is use of the up and down arrows to


scroll through the stack of previous commands. You can,
