Chapter 2 - MATLAB Basics - Part 2

The document discusses initializing and assigning arrays in MATLAB. It shows how to create arrays using built-in functions like zeros, ones, eye, and by specifying ranges or values. It also demonstrates useful functions like size and length to get array dimensions and sizes. Finally, it discusses multidimensional arrays and examples of how to represent different types of multi-dimensional data as arrays in MATLAB.

Introduction to MATLAB

MATLAB BASICS
PART 2
Initializing and Assigning Arrays

 temp_range = 0:0.01:50

 angles = (0.01:0.01:1.00)*pi

 Array1 = [1 2 3;4 5 6;7 8 9];

 Array2 = [1:10;11:20;21:30];

 Array3(2,3)= 3;
Initializing and Assigning Arrays

 Assignment using MATLAB built-in functions:


 a = zeros(3);

 b = zeros(2,3);

 c = ones(3);

 d = ones(2,3);

 I1 = eye(3);

 I2 = eye(5,3);
Initializing and Assigning Arrays

 Some useful MATLAB built-in functions:


 size(Array)
 Returns the values of the dimension of Array: row then column
 Examples
 size(Array1)
• 3 3
 size(Array2)
• 3 10
 size(Array3)
• 2 3
 size(angels)
• 1 101
Initializing and Assigning Arrays

 Some useful MATLAB built-in functions:


 length(Array)
 Returns the length of the vector, or the longest dimension of a 2-D array
 Examples
 length(Array1)
• 3
 length(Array2)
• 10
 length(Array3)
• 3
 length(angels)
• 101

 Important Note: ALL the built-in functions in MATLAB start


with lower case
 length NOT Length
 size NOT Size
Multidimensional Arrays

 Sometimes in an application, you need to define a


Matrix with more than 2 dimensions to store the
data for further processing:
 Examples:
 You have 3 cities, with 5 temperature readings a day over a full
week
 You have 10 patients, with 3 ECG Leads sampled at 200
samples/second
 You have 10 sections of MRI images of the brain, with each image
having a 480×480 resolution
 You have 10 sections of MRI images of the brain, with each image
having a 480×480 resolution for 20 patients
Multidimensional Arrays

 The type of data you have is what defines the


dimension of the data, and not vice versa:
 Solution to the previous examples:
 size(Temperature)
Either
 5×7×3 or 3×5×7
 size(ECG)

3×200×10

 size(MRI1)

480×480×10

 size(MRI2)

 480×480×10×20
