- myArray( [3, 4, 5] ) yields the new row array [70, 80, 90]. The indexing array is the integer array [3, 4, 5]. -myArray( [3:1:5] ) also yields [70, 80, 90]. The double colon operator can be used to construct the indexing array. -myArray(3:1:5) yields the same. When constructing a row array using the double colon operator, the brackets are optional. Omitting the brackets in an assignment statement, as in myArray = 50:10:90, is discouraged. In contrast, omitting the brackets for the indexing array is commonplace. -myArray(3:5) yields the same. The default increment of 1 in the double colon operator is commonly used when indexing. - ANSFor example, if myArray = [50, 60, 70, 80, 90], then: ' (transpose operator) - ANSmakes [1,2,3,4] into [ 1 2 3 4 ] 's' - ANSComplete the statement to obtain a string from the user rather than a number. userName = input('Sally',_____); " - ANSTwo single quotation marks print a single quotation mark. Note that a single quotation mark alone would instead indicate the end of the format specification. ( ) parenthesis ~ not & and | or left-to-right - ANSlogical operators order of operation [0, 0, 1] & is applied element-wise, yielding [1 & 0, 0 & 0, 1 & 1] = [0, 0, 1] - ANS[1, 0, 1] & [0, 0, 1] yields what new array? [1, 1, 1, 0] - ANS~[0, 0, 0, 1] yields what new array?

Note that a single backslash character would instead indicate the start of a special character sequence like \n. \n - ANSprints a new line \t - ANSprints a tab & - ANSboolean & %-8.2f - ANSFixed-point occupying a minimum of 8 digits, left-aligned, with 2 digits to the right of the decimal point. %.4f - ANSFixed-point with 4 digits to the right of the decimal point. %% - ANSTwo percent characters print one percent character.

The compose function formats values from arrayIn in column order. contains(String1,TestPattern) - ANSperforms a case-sensitive logical comparison returning 1 (true) if scalar array string1 contains the specified testPattern, and returns 0 (false) otherwise. If testPattern is a string array containing multiple patterns, then contains returns 1 if string1 contains any element of testPattern. contains(string1, testPattern, 'IgnoreCase',true) ignores case when determining if string1 contains testPattern. cos - ANScosine cosd - ANScosine in argument of degrees cosh - ANShyperbolic cosine cot - ANScotangent

Ex: myArray = [5:1:9] yields array [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]. endsWith(String1,TestPattern) - ANSperforms case-sensitive logical comparison returning 1 (true) if scalar array string1 end with the specified testPattern, and returns 0 (false) otherwise. If testPattern is a string array containing multiple patterns, then endsWith returns 1 if string1 ends with any element of testPattern. endWith(string1, testPattern, 'IgnoreCase', true) ignores case when determining if string1 ends with testPattern. exit - ANSexits the MATLAB session exp - ANSexponential eye - ANSreturns an m by n array aEye with ones on the main diagonal and zeros elsewhere. figure(n) - ANSmakes figure number n the current figure find(inputAr) - ANS______ locates all nonzero elements of inputAr and returns the linear indices of these elements in outLin.
