Example: Create a script file and type the following code:

Example: 12
Check each element in x in this example all elements
give true 13

Check each element in x in this example -9


give false
Create two vectors x, and y with values (4,9,25) for x and (4,6,8) for y .
If all elements in x and y greater than zero create a new vector named z
Where z = x +y, other wise print this statement “some of the elements of
14
x and/or
Y are negative”

 Example: Assigning letter grades

Range Grade
100  grade > 95 A
95  grade > 86 B
86  grade > 76 C
76  grade > 66 D
66  grade > 0 F

How can we compute the letter corresponding to a given


numeric grade?

Solution:
1- create script named calc
2- create function named calc test:

3- test the value of x and y command window(call

The Nested if Statements
22
It is always legal in MATLAB to nest if-else statements which means you
can use one if or elseif statement inside another if or elseif statement(s).
Example:
23
a = 100;
b = 200;
% check the boolean condition
if( a == 100 )
% if condition is true then check the following
if( b == 200 )
% if condition is true then print the following
fprintf('Value of a is 100 and b is 200\n' );
end
end
fprintf('Exact value of a is : %d\n', a );
fprintf('Exact value of b is : %d\n', b );
24

Branches:
b) switch Statement
BRANCHES (switch-STATEMENT)
The switch statement syntax is a means of conditionally
25
executing code. In particular, switch executes one set of
statements selected from an arbitrary number of alternatives.

The switch_expr & case_expr


may be a scalar or a string

Optional
BRANCHES (switch-STATEMENT)
26
Remarks:
 The case expression could be more than one enclosed by {}

 At most one code block can be executed. If the switch_exp matches more
than case_exp the first one is executed.
BRANCHES (switch-STATEMENT) 27
Example:
Switch statement is an
alternative for if statement:

If (value == 1 | value ==3 |


value == 5 | value == 7 |
value == 9)
disp (‘odd’)
elseif (value == 2 | value
==4 | value == 6 | value
== 8 | value == 10)
disp (‘even’)
else
disp(‘out of range’)
end

H.W : Use MATLAB to create a game called “Guess the number”. The game 31
will ask the player to guess the number between 0-10. The dummy(answer)
number is generated randomly(using rand round command). If player failed 3
times, the game is over. After game over, the game must ask the player
whether he/she want to play again. See the example for details.

Example
>>mygame
Guess a number(0-10):5
Guess a number(0-10):7
Guess a number(0-10):2
You failed, Try again(Y/N)? % player enter ’Y’ if ‘N’ quit a
game
Guess a number(0-10):9
Yes, you got it!!!
