Spring 2008 Math 151 Matlab Assignment 5

Description

1. Students will work together in their STEPS teams. In this manner they will:
   
   
   • finish assignments more quickly and cross-check each other's work;
     
     
   • give their TAs a more manageable amount to grade;
     
     
   • build their networking and cooperation skills.
     
     
2. In Chapter 5 of your Matlab lab manual (Gilat 3rd Edition), do the following problems.
   
   
   • g149x02, g149x04, g150x06, g151x10, g152x14
   
   
3. For each problem, you'll work out of the MATLAB Editor. You'll interactively save and run your MATLAB M-file, writing input and output to a diary file. If you have graphics, save your figure files and export them as Encapsulated PostScript. For example, the four files for the first problem are:
   
   
   • g149x02.m: M-file with MATLAB input commands and comments
   • g149x02.txt: diary file with input and output interspersed
   • g149x02.fig: figure file containing graphics
   • g149x02.eps: Encapsulated PostScript printer file
   
   
4. You'll print out the .txt and .eps files via xprint. Do any hand work on ruled notebook paper or engineering green graph paper.
   
   
5. Regarding the figures themselves, interactively edit them. Put on labels; insert text or arrows; change line thicknesses; etc.
   
   
6. This assignment is due Wed-Thu, 05-06/Mar, at the START of computer lab. Be sure to manage your time according to your schedule. Do NOT put things off!
   
   
7. When you finish, you will turn in the documentation of your Matlab work to your TA. Make sure the following information is on a cover sheet.
   
   
   • Spring 2008 Math 151 Matlab Assignment 5
   • Section 8xx, Your Name, Student ID
   
   
8. Various MATLAB videos that you have viewed in advance show how to use xprint to print your diary .txt and graphics .eps files from CalcLab. Alternatively, transfer your MATLAB files to your TAMU open access lab H: home drive via WinSCP, load them into the Windows version of MATLAB, and print locally.

Notes

• There are samples of the types of problems you have to do in Chapter 5 of your lab manual and your lecture handouts.
