Second Semester 2015-16

MidSem Exam
(EC-2 Regular)

Course No : TAZC164
Course Title : Computer Programming(in MATLAB)
Nature of Exam : Closed Book
No. of Pages = 2
Weightage : 35%
No. of Questions = 7
Duration : 2[hrs]
Date of Exam : 28/02/2016(FN)

Note:

1. Follow all the Instructions to Candidates given on the cover page of the answer book. Answer all questions.
All parts of a question should be answered consecutively. All relevant and necessary assumptions/notations
to be defined completely and clearly.
2. Question Type:

(a) Each question with Find requires numerical values(/program output) to be given in the answer.
(b) Each question with word obtain requires the answer to be given ONLY as a MATLAB script/functions.
There is no need to give any program output in terms of arrays or any other output. The default
answer to be a script. The MATLAB code to be syntactically correct.

3. (i) , denotes a definition, (ii) e ja in MATLAB is exp(j∗a); (iii) For c = mod (a, b); c the remainder of a/b.
4. Am×n denotes a matrix of m-rows and n-columns. For 1 ≤ c ≤ n, A∗c denotes the c-th column
 of A.
−1 −5 6 −5
For 1 ≤ r ≤ m, Ar∗ denotes the r-th row of A. For example A , , A∗2 = and
−10 −9 8 −9
 
A2∗ = −10 −9 8 .
5. Vectors:
 
a1
 a2   T
(a) A vector an×1 implies a ,  .  = a1 a2 · · · an ;
 
.
. 
an
 T 
(b) Example: a = −1 2 −3 4 , implies a1 = −1, a2 = 2, a3 = −3, a4 = 4 ;

6. Sequences stored in vectors:


(a) A sequence x[n] for 0 ≤ n < L implies x[n] ∈ x[0], x[1], x[2],· · ·, x[L − 1] . Also x[n] = 0, n < 0.
 T
(b) x[n] can be stored in a column vector v x , a1 a2 · · · aL as a(n+1) , x[n].
