Data Types
Computers operate on bits, but humans think in terms of numbers, words, and other types of data. Like any
good language, MATLAB organizes bits into convenient data types. We will study those types in this
section. We will learn that there are ten types of numbers and that there are conversion functions to change
one type into another. We will learn much more about strings and how the characters in them are encoded
as numbers. We will learn how to produce heterogeneous collections of data via data types called structs
and cells.
