Loops in MATLAB

For loops are counter based loops that allow executing MATLAB statements repeatedly. Examples show using for loops to add elements of a vector, add odd numbers from 1 to 10, and compute the factorial of a user-input number. Nested for loops can print patterns like a triangle of increasing stars specified by the user.

For Loops

 For loops are counter based loops

for k=1:1:10
MATLAB statement
end
Example
Following code will add up each element of a vector, and
display the result after ending the for loop.

v = 1:10;
sum = 0;
for i = 1:length(v)
sum = sum + v(i);
end
disp(sum)
Example
We want to add only odd numbers from the numbers in
1:10

sum = 0;
for i = 1:2:10
sum = sum + i;
end
disp(sum)
Example
Write a program to ask a number from a user, verify that the
number is not negative, and compute its factorial.

numb=input('Enter a number: ');


fact=1;
if numb<0
fprintf('the number you have entered is negative');
else
for i=1:numb
fact=fact*i;
end
fact
end
Nested Loops
Let’s say we wanted to print out the following pattern of
stars, allowing the user to specify how many rows:
Example
rows=input(How many rows do you want: ');
for R=1:rows
for s=1:R
fprintf(‘*’);
end
fprintf(‘\n’);
end
