Control Flow and Decision Making: Conditional Statements and Logical Operations
1. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Check if a number is even or odd
number = input('Enter a number: ');
if mod(number, 2) == 0
disp('The number is even.');
else
disp('The number is odd.');
end
2. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Check if the student has passed or failed
grade = input('Enter the student''s grade: ');
if grade >= 50
disp('The student has passed.');
else
disp('The student has failed.');
end
3. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Check if a year is a leap year
year = input('Enter a year: ');
if mod(year, 4) == 0
if mod(year, 100) == 0
if mod(year, 400) == 0
disp('The year is a leap year.');
else
disp('The year is not a leap year.');
end
else
disp('The year is a leap year.');
end
else
disp('The year is not a leap year.');
end
Loops and Iterative Structures
4. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Calculate the sum of the first 20 natural numbers
sum = 0;
for i = 1:20
sum = sum + i;
end
disp(['The sum of the first 20 natural numbers is: ', num2str(sum)]);
5. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Calculate the factorial of a given number using a while loop
number = input('Enter a number: ');
factorial = 1;
i = 1;
while i <= number
factorial = factorial * i;
i = i + 1;
end
disp(['Factorial of ', num2str(number), ' is: ',
num2str(factorial)]);
6. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Generate the first 10 terms of the Fibonacci sequence
n = 10;
fibonacci = zeros(1, n);
fibonacci(1) = 1;
fibonacci(2) = 1;
for i = 3:n
fibonacci(i) = fibonacci(i-1) + fibonacci(i-2);
end
disp('The first 10 terms of the Fibonacci sequence are:');
disp(fibonacci);
Vectorization and Array Operations
7. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Add two vectors element-wise
A = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
B = [6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
C = A + B;
disp('The element-wise addition of the vectors is:');
disp(C);
8. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Multiply each element of a 3x3 matrix by 3
A = [1, 2, 3; 4, 5, 6; 7, 8, 9];
B = A * 3;
disp('The matrix after element-wise multiplication by 3 is:');
disp(B);
9. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Find the element-wise maximum of two matrices
A = [1, 4, 3; 7, 5, 6; 9, 8, 2];
B = [3, 2, 5; 6, 7, 4; 8, 1, 9];
C = max(A, B);
disp('The element-wise maximum of the matrices is:');
disp(C);
MATLAB Functions and Scripting
10. Solution:
matlab
Copy code
% Function to calculate mean and standard deviation of an array
function [meanVal, stdVal] = calculateStats(array)
meanVal = mean(array);
stdVal = std(array);
end
% Using the function
data = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
[meanVal, stdVal] = calculateStats(data);
disp(['Mean: ', num2str(meanVal)]);
disp(['Standard Deviation: ', num2str(stdVal)]);
These questions and solutions will help students understand and apply the concepts of control
flow, loops, vectorization, and functions in MATLAB.
