The&#160;!- feature can be used to prevent exiting MATLAB while performing operations in a separate program. For instance, one can edit the file EML4500.m in a local text editor by typing </p> <pre> <code> !EML4500.m</code> </pre> <p>When the user is finished editing the file, they will be returned to an active MATLAB window. </p><p>M-files should be stored in a dedicated directory so that they can be easily accessed by MATLAB. The default active directory of MATLAB is C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2006\work, but the user may choose to create another active work directory. To change the active directory or to create an additional MATLAB search path, navigate to File -&gt; set Path... and perform any necessary changes. Note that MATLAB does include subdirectories in its search path, which allows the user to save M-files in subfolders and still be able to execute them in a MATLAB session. </p><p>The table below lists commands that will be useful when working with M-files: </p> <table class="wikitable"> <caption>Table 14.1 MATLAB Commands related to M-files </caption> <tbody><tr> <th>Command</th> <th>Description </th></tr> <tr> <td>path</td> <td>Displays a list of all active MATLAB directory search paths </td></tr> <tr> <td>pwd</td> <td>returns the name of the active working directory </td></tr> <tr> <td>cd</td> <td>Used to change the working directory </td></tr> <tr> <td>dir or lis</td> <td>Lists the contents of the active directory </td></tr> <tr> <td>what</td> <td>Lists only the M-files in the directory </td></tr> <tr> <td>delete or type</td> <td>Used to delete a diskfile and print an M-file to the screen </td></tr></tbody></table> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Comparing_efficiency_of_algorithms:_Flops,_tic_and_toc"><span id="Comparing_efficiency_of_algorithms:_Flops.2C_tic_and_toc"></span>Comparing efficiency of algorithms: Flops, tic and toc</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;veaction=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Comparing efficiency of algorithms: Flops, tic and toc" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section&#039;s source code: Comparing efficiency of algorithms: Flops, tic and toc"><span>edit source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>When creating computer-intensive MATLAB code, it is often wise to create an algorithm that is efficient as possible. Two way to asses the efficiency of an algorithm are the amount of floating point operations (flops) performed and the elapsed time. </p><p>The MATLAB function records the total number of flops performed. The command <code> flops(0)</code> resets the flops to zero and is normally entered prior to running a an algorithm. Entering the <code> flops </code> command after executing the algorithm gives the flops count for the algorithm. For example, the number of flops required to solve the equation c = a + b can be obtained with: </p> <pre> <code> Flops(0), c = a + b; flops </code> </pre> <p>NOTE: With MATLAB ver. 7 and newer, the <code>flops</code> command can no longer be used. MATLAB will display the following error: </p> <pre> function f = flops(x) %FLOPS Obsolete floating point operation count. &#160;% Earlier versions of MATLAB counted the number of floating point &#160;% operations. With the incorporation of LAPACK in MATLAB 6, this &#160;% is no longer practical. &#160;% Copyright 1984-2004 The MathWorks, Inc. &#160;% $Revision: 5.12.4.1 $ $Date: 2004/01/24 09:21:21 if (nargin &lt; 1) || (x ~= 0) warning('MATLAB:flops:UnavailableFunction', ... 'Flop counts are no longer available.') end if nargout &gt; 0 f = 0; end </pre> <p>While the flops command may not work for all users, the elapsed time can still be obtained. The time required to solve an algorithm can be found by using the stopwatch timers <code>tic</code> and <code>toc</code>. For example, to find the total time needed to solve the equation <code>K=f*d</code>, use the following command; </p> <pre> <code> tic, K=f*d, toc </code> </pre> <p>It should be noted, however, that the elapsed time may not be the best measure of algorithm efficiency because the rate of execution depends on how busy the processor is. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Output_format">Output format</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;veaction=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section: Output format" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;action=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section&#039;s source code: Output format"><span>edit source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Even though all computations in MATLAB are performed in double precision, the format of the output display can be altered by the following commands: </p> <table class="wikitable"> <caption>Table 16.1 Output Display Commands </caption> <tbody><tr> <th>Command</th> <th>Description </th></tr> <tr> <td>Format short</td> <td>Fixed point with 4 decimal places (the default) </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format long</td> <td>Fixed point with 14 decimal places </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format short e</td> <td>Scientific notation with 4 decimal places </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format long e</td> <td>Scientific notation with 15 decimal places </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format rat</td> <td>approximation by ratio of small integers </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format hex</td> <td>Hexadecimal format </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format bank</td> <td>Fixed dollars and cents </td></tr> <tr> <td>Format +</td> <td>+,-,blank </td></tr> </tbody></table> <p>Once introduced, the chosen format will remain in effect until changed. </p><p>The command <code> format compact </code> will suppress blank line allowing more information to be seen on the screen. </p><p>The command <code> format loose </code> returns MATLAB to the non-compact format. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Introduction_to_Finite_Element_Analysis_and_Design">Introduction to Finite Element Analysis and Design</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;veaction=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Introduction to Finite Element Analysis and Design" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section&#039;s source code: Introduction to Finite Element Analysis and Design"><span>edit source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="MATLAB_Vision">MATLAB Vision</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;veaction=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: MATLAB Vision" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=University_of_Florida/Eml4500/f08.qwiki.harris&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section&#039;s source code: MATLAB Vision"><span>edit source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <!-- NewPP limit report Parsed by mw‐web.eqiad.main‐7c479b968‐76vpd Cached time: 20241116193810 Cache expiry: 2592000 Reduced expiry: false Complications: [show‐toc] CPU time usage: 0.009 seconds Real time usage: 0.010 seconds Preprocessor visited node count: 23/1000000 Post‐expand include size: 0/2097152 bytes Template argument size: 0/2097152 bytes Highest expansion depth: 2/100 Expensive parser function count: 0/500 Unstrip recursion depth: 0/20 Unstrip post‐expand size: 581/5000000 bytes Number of Wikibase entities loaded: 0/400 --> <!-- Transclusion expansion time report (%,ms,calls,template) 100.00% 0.000 1 -total --> <!-- Saved in parser cache with key enwikiversity:pcache:idhash:66617-0!canonical and timestamp 20241116193810 and revision id 1995769.
