Conditional statements
Solution with MATLAB
  Create an M-file
 Save the file with the name of abs_num
 Write the following script
 %%%%prompt the user for a number and print its absolute
 num=input('please enter a number:');
Writing a script  %%%if the user entered the negative number, change it
to return the  if num > 0
 number=num
absolute value  end
of a number  if num < 0
 disp('ok,the number is negative, we will use the absolute
number')
 number = abs(num)
 end
  To run the script abs_num, type abs_num in the
command window and press enter
 You will be asked to enter your number
Writing a script
to return the
absolute value
of a number

 Type ‘-4’. Matlab returns the absolute value ‘4’

  %%%%prompt the user for a number and print its sqrt
 num=input('please enter a number:');
 %%%if the user entered the positive number, find the square root
 if num > 0
Writing a script  number=sqrt(num);
to return the  end

absolute value 
%%%if the user entered the negative number, change it
if num < 0
of a number  number1 = abs(num)
 number = sqrt(number1);
 end
 disp('OK, we''ll use the absolute value')
 fprintf('the sqrt of %.1f is %.1f\n',num,number)
  Write an if statement that would print “No overtime for
Practice you” if the value of a variable hours is less than 40. “A
10% increment will be given to those who have worked
exercise- for 40-50 hours and 30% for those who have worked for
conditional 50 hours. Test the if statement for values of hours both
less than and greater than 40.
statement
 age=input(‘Please enter your age:');
if age < 15
disp('you are not eligible for driving license')
The if-else elseif age < 20
statements- disp('you may eligible for driving license after a trial')
example else
disp ('you are eligible for driving license')
end
  Write an if-else statement that would calculate the
Practice area of a circle only if the value of a variable radius is
exercise-if-else greater than zero. Use fprintf function to return the
value of area.
statement
  In petroleum industries, it is common that the molecular weight of
an oil fraction is unknown and thus must be estimated by using a
correlation. A correlation that is widely used is developed by Riazi
and Daubert, which is also referred to as the API (American
Tutorial #1 Petroleum Institute) method. The correlation can be applied to
hydrocarbons with molecular weight ranging from 70-700, which is
Question#1 nearly equivalent to boiling point range of 300-850 K, and the API
gravity range of 14.4-93. This molecular weight (M) correlation is
given as a function of the average boiling point (Tb) and the
specific gravity at 60°F (SG) of the oil fraction of interest as
follows:
 Where, Tb is in K and SG is related to the API gravity (API):

Tutorial #1
Question#1
 Estimate the molecular weight of an oil fraction that has an
average boiling point of 344.7°C and an API gravity of 50.
 Plot a graph M vs.T (400 < Tb< 600 K) with API gravity = 20, 40,
and 60.
