2. Basics
Basic data element is an array that does not require dimensioning.
A=[1 2 3;4 5 6; 7 8 9]
A = [ ]

3. Matrix Manipulations Sum(A) = sums of the columns of A
A’ = Transpose of A
Diag(A) = gives diagonal elements of A
Min(A) = minimum element column wise of A.
Max(A) = maximum element column wise of A.
Mean(A) = Average element column wise of A.
Std(A) = Standard deviation column wise of A.
X = zeros(5,5) Y = ones(6,6)
M=rand(5,5) N = randn(6,6)
A=[1:50]
A=[0:pi/4:pi]=[ ]

4. Matrix Manipulations (contd..)
B = magic(4) = [
Dürer's magic square ]
All numbers are stored internally using the long format specified by the IEEE floating-point standard.
Floating-point numbers have
finite precision 16 significant decimal digits and
finite range  to

5. Matrix Manipulations (contd..)
A(:,2) = []  deletes 2nd column.
A(2:2:12) = [] results in row vector of remaining elements.
A = A.*5  Element-by-element multiplication.
[indices] = find(isprime(A))
format  this command can be used for formatting the displayed numeric output (either in short or long format).

6. MATLAB Programming MATLAB has several flow control constructs:
if statements
switch statements
for loops
while loops
continue statements
break statements

7. Graphics Plotting sinusoidal function using the plot function.
Cylinder  unit cylinder with default 20 points on the circumference.
Sphere  unit sphere with default 20 points on the circumference.
Subplot(m,n,p)  partitions the figure window into m-by-n matrix of small subplots and selects the pth subplot for the current plot.

8. Graphics (contd..)
mesh  produces wire frame surfaces that color only the lines connecting the defining points.
surf  displays both the connecting lines and the faces of the surface in color.
Light and camera effect on the visualization of 2-dim sinc function (i.e. sin(r)/r) between x and y directions.

9. Types of Images
Index images
Intensity images
Binary images
RGB images

10. Image Processing Dürer's magic square
Animation using EraseMode property.
Animation using Movie method
Functions:
Imread  read an image
Imwrite  writes specified matrix into an image.
Image  displays specified matrix as an image.
Imshow  Displays an intensity (gray level) image.
Im2frame  converts an image into movie frame.
Avifile  creates an avifile object.
Addframe  adds movie frame to avifile object.
Getframe  returns movie frame.
Movie  Play recorded movie frames.
close  closes current figure.

11. Useful functions help fnName  help on any function.
whos  information on current variables in the workspace.
guide  GUI editor.
demo  Matlab toolboxes and functions demo.
eval(str)  evaluates expression in the str variable.
load abc.mat  loads data in the matlab file.
