MATLAB is a high-level programming language that supports different kinds of fundamental elements. In MATLAB, there is a fundamental element called variable which is used to store data. A variable has a unique name referred to as identifier. A value is stored in the variable that can be utilized through the variable name. In this article, we will study about basics of variables and their characteristics. Also, we will explore different types of variables and their declaration with the help of examples. What is a Variable in MATLAB? In MATLAB, a variable is one of the programming elements that is used to ... Read More

MATLAB stands for Matrix Laboratory. It is a computing environment and a programming language developed by MathWorks. MATLAB is primarily developed to provide a high-performance environment to perform various technical computations. The greatest advantage of MATLAB is that it combines programming, computation, and visualization of numerical data together and provides a human friendly and easy to use interface to solve numerical problems. The first version of MATLAB was released in the year of 1984. Due to its advanced functionalities, it is widely used in various fields of mathematics, engineering, and technology, such as image and signal processing, matrix manipulation, solving ... Read More

Electrical Conductivity is an important term used in electrical engineering to understand the behavior of a material and electric current flowing through it. Electric conductivity is the property of a material that provides ease in the flow of electric current through the material. Read this article to get a detailed understanding of "electric conductivity", from its definition to principle and its applications. Let us start with the basic definition of electrical conductivity. What is Electrical Conductivity? Electrical conductivity is defined as the property that provides ease in the flow of electric current (movement of electrons) through a material. Electrical conductivity ... Read More

Read this tutorial to learn the method of swapping two elements in each row of a matrix without using loop in MATLAB. MATLAB is a powerful to manipulate matrices. We can perform various operations on matrices using MATLAB. In MATLAB, we can swap any two elements in each row of a matrix using the "matrix indexing method". This method of swapping two elements in rows of a matrix is explained below with the help of an example. How to Swap Two Elements in Each Row of Matrix without using Loop In MATLAB, we can use the matrix indexing to swap ... Read More

Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is an error estimation technique used to calculate the difference between estimated values and actual values. This method provides the average value of errors as a single value. We can use MATLAB to calculate the root mean square error. For this, MATLAB provides various built-in functions. In this tutorial, I will explain how to calculate the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) in MATLAB. What is Root Mean Square Error (RMSE)? The root mean square error (RMSE) is a method of measuring error or accuracy of a predictive tool or model. It is calculated by finding ... Read More

In MATLAB, when we define multiple methods or functions with the same name but a list of different input arguments in a class, it is known as function overloading. In MATLAB programming, the function overloading is a part of polymorphism. Where, the concept of polymorphism says that a single function can behave differently depending on the nature or type of input arguments provided. This article is primarily meant for explaining the concept of function overloading in class definitions in MATLAB programming. But before that let us learn a bit about overloading functions in class definitions in MATLAB. What is Overloading ... Read More
