Built-in Logical Functions (and, or, not)

MATLAB has built-in functions that are
equivalent to the logical operators:

1. and(A,B) = A&B

2. or(A,B)=A|B

3. not(A)=~A

CONDITIONAL STATEMENT

• Decision-making command:
• execute the command
• or to skip the command

• In a conditional statement, a conditional expression is

stated.

• True (1), a group of commands that follow the

statement are executed.

• False (0), the computer skips the group.
