Introduction to Matlab
• Matlab is short for Matrix Laboratory
• Matlab is also a programming language
3
Matlab Basics
• Basic data type: Matrix
• A matrix is a twodimensional array of
numbers rows and
A
columns.
• A vector is a onedimensional matrix. It may
have either one row or one
column.

Variables
Variable names:

Must start with a letter.

May contain only letters, digits, and the underscore “_”.

MATLAB is case sensitive, for example one & ONE are different
variables.

MATLAB only recognizes the first 31 characters in a variable name.
Assignment statement:

Variable = number; >> t=1234

Variable = expression; >>t=a+b

Creating Matrices
A = [ 100
0
99 ;
7 -1 -25 ]
The semi colon separates the rows of a matrix.
To print the matrix, type the name.
A=

Accessing Matrix Elements
To print the element in the 2nd row, 3rd column,
1
2 3
type:
A(2, 3 )

Matlab prints ans = -25
A 

 1  25
By entering
x = A(1,1) + A( 2,3)
Matlab returns x = 75
14
Changing Matrix Elements
To change an entry, enter the new value:
A(2,3) = -50
Matlab prints the new matrix A
A = 100

The : operator
x = 1 : 7 or x = [ 1 : 7 ] creates the same vector
as the command x = [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7]
y = 0 : 3 : 12
is the same as
y = [ 0 3 6 9 12 ]
y = 0 : 3 : 11
is the same as
y = [ 0 3 6 9 ]
z = 15 : -4 : 3
is the same as
z = [ 15 11 7 3 ]
w = 0 : 0.01 : 2 is the same as
w = [ 0 0.01 0.02 ... 1.99 2.00 ]

Arithmetic Operations
A, B are matrices, x is a scalar
x*A
multiplies each entry of A by x
x + A
adds x to each entry of A
same as x*ones(size(A)) + A
x – A
same as x*ones(size(A)) – A
A + B
standard matrix addition
A – B
standard matrix subtraction
26
Arithmetic Operations (cont.)
A*B
Standard matrix multiplication
cols A = rows B
A.*B
element-wise multiplication
size( A) = size(B)
A.\B
divide elements of B by those in A
A./B
divide elements of A by those in B

Linear Equations
Example: a system of 3 linear equations with 3 unknowns
(x1, x2, x3)
 3 x1 + 2x2 - x3 = 10
 - x1 + 3x2 + 2x3 = 5
 x1 - 2x2 - x3 = -1
 Let:
3 2 1
A   1 3 2 
 1 1 1
 x1 
x   x2 
 x3 
10 
b   5 
 1
Then, the system can be described as:
Ax = b
29
Complex Numbers
Matlab works with complex numbers, so
sqrt( -3 ) is a valid command.
Lowercase i is reserved for the special value
sqrt(-1)
30
Special Values
pi = 3.14159 ....
Inf = infinity (divide by 0)
M = [ pi sqrt(-3); Inf 0]
M =

31
Linear Equations
Solution by Matrix Inverse:
Ax = b
A-1 Ax = A-1 b
Ax = b
Solution by Matrix Division:
 Ax = b
 Can be solved by left division
b\A
MATLAB:
MATLAB:
>> A = [3 2 -1; -1 3 2; 1 -1 -1];
>> b = [10;5;-1];
>> x = inv(A)*b
x=

5.0000

>> A = [3 2 -1; -1 3 2; 1 -1 1];
