Mathematics and Code Equivalents

The transition from mathematics to code or vice versa can be made with the aid of a few rules. They are listed here for future reference.

To change from mathematics notation to MATLAB® notation, the user needs to:

• Change superscripts to cell array indices.

• For example,

• Change subscripts to parentheses indices.

• For example, , and

• Change parentheses indices to a second cell array index.

• For example,
  
  

• Change mathematics operators to MATLAB operators and toolbox functions.

• For example,

The following equations illustrate the notation used in figures.
