Practical 5: Function and Script M-files
Script M-file
Creating M-file
|
Exercise > The following script M-file finds the value of the function at y= sin x + x3 at x = 3. % exercise1script.m x = 3 y = sin(x) + x^3 > Run this M-file by typing the following in the Command Window: exercise1script > Then update the M-file to find the value of f(x) for x = 4, 5, 6. |
Quite often we need to be able to calculate the value of a function y=f(x) for any value of x. Obviously, it is not practical to change value of x each time. For this purpose MATLAB has a special type of M-file, called M-function.
