07:

Multiplotting in Matlab, more than one graphs on single figure, coloring and representation by
Maths symbols, labels and titles of graphs.
Tools: PC, Matlab

Lab. Objective:

To know about multiplotting and other graphs properties in Matlab

Multiplotting in Matlab

Multiplotting mean how to plot more than one figures on subfigures in a single one figure.

Matlab Code:

%% multiplotting of waveforms%%

t1=0:.001:2*pi;%defining time for first waveform

t2=0:.01:4*pi;%defining time for second waveform

y1=10*cos(2*pi*t1);%defining first waveform

y2=5*tan(2*pi*t2);%defining second waveform

subplot(1,2,1);% Matlab built-inn command for mutiplotting

plot(t1,y1)% plotting first waveform

legend('cosine waveform')

subplot(1,2,2)%Matlab built-inn command for mutiplotting

plot(t2,y2)%plotting first waveform

legend('tangent waveform')

Figure 1: Multiplotts on one figire

Multigraphs on one figure

Multigraphs on one figure mean to plot more than one graphs on a single one main figure.

Matlab code:

%% more than one graphs on single figure%%

t=0:.01:2*pi;%defining time for waveform

y1=10*cos(2*pi*t);%defining first waveform

y2=8*asin(4*pi*t);%defining second waveform

plot(t,y1,t,y2)% plotting both of waveforms
