Q.2 Use MATLAB as a calculator. Try the following:
 pi*pi – 10
 sin(pi/4)
 ans ˆ 2 %<--- "ans" holds the last result

ANS:

result1=pi^2 - 10;
pi^2 - 10;
result2=sin(pi/4);
sin(pi/4);
result3 = ans^2;
disp(['pi^2 - 10: ' num2str(result1)]);
disp(['sin(pi/4): ' num2str(result2)]);
disp(['(ans)^2: ' num2str(result3)]);

Q.3 Create a vector

a. ‘A’ of even whole numbers between 31 and 75.
b. ‘B’ of odd whole numbers between 75 and 131.

ANS:

% Create vector 'A' of even whole numbers between 31 and 75

A = 32:2:74;
% Create vector 'B' of odd whole numbers between 75 and 131
B = 75:2:131;
% Display the vectors
disp('Vector A (even numbers between 31 and 75):');
disp(A);
disp('Vector B (odd numbers between 75 and 131):');
disp(B);

Q.4 Complex numbers are natural in MATLAB. The basic operations are supported. Try the following:
z = 3 + 4i, w = -3 + 4j
 real(z), imag(z)
 abs([z,w]) %<-- Vector constructor
 conj(z+w)
 angle(z)
 exp( j*pi )
 exp(j*[ pi/4, 0, -pi/4 ])

Q.5 Make sure that you understand the colon notation. In particular, explain in words what the following
MATLAB code will produce.
 jkl = 0 : 6
 jkl = 2 : 4 : 17
 jkl = 99 : -1 : 88
 ttt = 2 : (1/9) : 4
 tpi = pi * [ 0:0.1:2 ];

Q.6 Extracting and/or inserting numbers into a vector are very easy to do. Consider the following definition
of xx:
 xx = [ zeros(1,3), linspace(0,1,5), ones(1,4) ]
 xx(4:6)
 size(xx)
 length(xx)
 xx(2:2:length(xx)
Explain the results echoed from the last four lines of the above code.

Q.7 Enter the following in MATLAB.
