Let G1(s) = 1 G2(s) = 1/(s+1),
G3(s) = 1/(s+2) G4(s) = 1/(s+3),

input = 1;
output = 4;
[aa,bb,cc,dd]=connect(a,b,c,d,q,input,output);
[num,den]=ss2tf(aa,bb,cc,dd);
printsys(num,den,'s')

System Response:
State model [a,b,c,d] of the block diagrams has 7 inputs and 7 outputs

num/den =

s + 3
--------------------------
s^3 + 26 s^2 + 179 s + 210

Inference from Code and Output:
Matlab Simulation Output is verified by the manual reduction technique
hence the code is correct.
