This code would ask the user to enter a number between 1 and 5, and store the input number in the some_num variable. You may be wondering what the single quotes are. In MATLAB, single quotes denote a string. A string is a sequence of characters, such as dog, and ate my homework!. For the purposes of this lab, you can consider a string to simply represent text.
1) Based on the information above, write the MATLAB code to ask the user to enter a velocity in m/s. Be sure to store the input in a variable that has a fitting name.
Explanation / Answer
% you can directly store the data from the user or can ask him how many data are there.
% pre-defining the number of elements will increase efficiency.
size=input('enter number of elements'); % ask the user to give the number of elements he is going to enter
a=zeros(1,5); %create an array with that size.
for i=1:size
a(i)=input('enter the data ');
end
%to display the data
disp('you have entered');
disp(a)
