Basic Matlab Commands

clear all: clears workspace of all variables close all : closes all the figure windows plot (x,y) : plots vector y versus x % : used for Comments help : when used with command gives its syntax

help Command

Basic Arithmetic Operators

: Arithmetic addition : Arithmetic subtraction : Arithmetic multiplication : Arithmetic division ^ : Exponent or power .* : (element by element for arrays) + * /

Built-in Waveform Functions

cos (): Generates a cosine wave sin() : Generates a sine wave square(): Generates a square wave square( ,duty): Generates a square with specified duty cycle sawtooth(): Generates a sawtooth wave sawtooth(t,0.5): Generates a triangle wave

Sine-wave Generation
clear all; close all; frequency=1000; timeperiod=1/frequency; amplitude=1; dcoffset=0; t=0:0.00001:2*timeperiod; out=dcoffset+amplitude*cos(2*pi*frequency*t); plot(t,out);

Sine-wave Generation

clear all; close all; frequency=1000; timeperiod=1/frequency; amplitude=1; dcoffset=0; t=0:0.00001:2*timeperiod; out=dcoffset+amplitude*cos(2*pi*frequency*t); plot(t,out);
