1、MatLab Palm Chapter 2, Part 3 Cell Arrays, Structure Arrays,Class 7.1 Chapter 2: Sections 6 & 7,Announcements,Departmental Presentations. (REQUIRED ACTIVITY) 10/12 7:00-9:00 p.m. See online Schedule You must turn in two, one-page critiques (LIMIT EACH CRITIQUE TO ONE PAGE!), one for each presentatio

2、n that you attend. Due: Thursday, October 21, 2004.,Presentation Make-Up,If you have a legitimate conflict: Go to your conflicting class. Write a critique of the lecture/lab following the format below (two pages if course conflicts with both sessions of presentations) . On your cover sheet, give the

3、 course, section, and time of your conflict. Non-course-related conflicts REQUIRE instructor approval.,Critique format,Introductory paragraph. Start with broad statement. Become more specific with sentences that define the engineering field you heard about. End with the topic sentence for your criti

4、que.,Critique format, continued.,Example Introduction:“Civil engineers design, build and maintain our nations infrastructure. They take courses in structures, water resources, geotechnical engineering, construction management, and environmental engineering. These courses prepare them to work in larg

5、e or small firms that are both governmental or private. Although there are specific areas that CE majors can focus in, many students choose the “General Track,” which requires them to take electives in each of the major areas within civil engineering. Because of its breadth, civil engineering is an

6、interesting field, and the presenters for the department were very effective at communicating their enthusiasm for this subject.”,Broad,Specific with definition,Topic Sentence,Critique format, continued.,Two to three supporting paragraphs. These paragraphs flesh out your topic sentence. They MUST co

7、ntain A transition from the previous paragraph A key sentence (may be part of transition) Supporting sentences A concluding sentence,Critique format, continued.,Example supporting paragraph:“Enthusiasm may be hard to define, but you know it when you see it. For instance, the geotechnical presenter h

8、ad positive body language and used many personal examples to explain the topic. She talked clearly, in an animated voice, using a lot of hand gestures. She also had energy and showed by her facial expression that she was happy to be there and to have the opportunity to talk to our class. One example

9、 that stood out in my mind was how geotechnical engineers have to ensure that neighboring buildings are not damaged when a new facility is constructed. The picture of the subway pit right next to a major high-rise hotel brought that message home. Because of the active and interesting presentation st

10、yle, this presentation kept my attention.”,Transition,Key sentence,Supporting sentences,Conclusion,Critique format, continued.,Conclusion paragraph. Should summarize the body of the critique and draw the important conclusions. Should NOT state substantially new material.,Critique format, continued.,

11、Example conclusion paragraph: “Through these many techniques, the Department of Civil Engineering made a strong presentation. Each presenter showed excitement, both through energy, inflection, and personal example, and through a communicated, genuine desire to inform us about their topic and to teac

12、h us. They were courteous in the way they treated late-comers and loud students, while not letting the presentation get out of control. They were also knowledgeable and able to answer questions. Hence, since this presentation was well-prepared and effectively delivered, I was encouraged that it was

13、a beneficial use of my time.”,Transition,Summary of supporting paragraphs,Final conclusion,Critique Style,Each paragraph should be about the same length. Sentences should vary in length.,Critique Details,Details (see example): 8 ” x 11” paper, 1.5 times line spacing. One-inch margins on all sides. T

14、imes New Roman font. 12pt, bold title (maximum of two lines) 11pt body paragraphs. Underline: Topic sentence, each key sentence, and your final conclusion sentence. Turn in three pages stapled (1) cover sheet with personal information, (2) critique #1, (3) critique #2.,Announcements, cont.,Next Mond

Travel is from within Texas.,Budgetary Estimate,These costs are paid by the companies as part of their ou

This is probably a LOW estimate.,Team Exercise (Adapted from Palm Ch. 3, No. 10, p. 178),An object thrown vertically with a speed v0 reaches a height h at time t where:Write a function to compute h given v0 and t. It should allow t to be a vector. Use the function to PLOT

Understand the def

21、initions for structure, record, and field. Be able to create a structure array using at least two different methods. Be able to store, retrieve, and manipulate data in the different fields of a structure array.,Cell Arrays,A Cell Array is an array where each index is also an array. Each index can be

22、 a different data type (i.e. you can have letters in one index and numbers in another). Allows you to give one name to a set of data that belong together.,Cell Arrays, continued.,You can create Cell Arrays in two ways. Cell Indexing: e.g. A(1,1) = Walden Content Indexing: e.g. A1,1 = Walden Note the

23、 functions in Table 2.6-1 (p. 112) celldisp() and cellplot() are useful commands.,Cell Practice,Type the following commands: A = 1:4, 0, 9, 2, 2:5, 6:8 celldisp(A) cellplot(A) A1,3 A(1,3) A(1,2) A1,2 A1,2(1,2) A(1,2)(1,3) % why it this an error? A1,2(1,3) % why does this work?,New Topic: Structure A

24、rrays,A structure array is a collection of records. A record is a set of related fields where each field may contain a different data type. A field is an array of data that defines a particular attribute of an object.structure array = employee; record = employee(3); List of fields: name, address, da

25、te of employment, salary. or The collection of fields comprise a record; the collections of records comprise a structure array.,3.7 Structure Arrays,Structure Arrays are like data objects in other languages. Structure(record).Field1 = vector Structure(record).Field2 = string Structure(record).Field3

26、 = numberFields can be arrays, character strings or numbers.,Structure Arrays,By definition: “Structures are multidimensional MATLAB arrays with elements accessed by textual field designators.” Examples Student.name %Data Type = Text Student(2).scores(3) %Data Type = Array of numbers.,Creating Struc

27、tures,Structures can be created dynamically by direct assignment to individual fields. array_name(index).field_name = field_valueAn entire record (element of the array) can be added with a single statement.Clue(n) = struct(field name 1,field-value-1, field name 2, field-value-2, .) When text values

28、are entered for a field they must be enclose in single quotes.Note: If there is only one record in a structure, there is no index needed between the array name and the field name. If more than one record exist then the index value must me given.,Sample of Direct Assignment,%Array names and fields ca

Clue.who = Prof Plum; Clue.where = Study; Clue.what = Candlestick; disp(Clue)who: Prof Plumwhere: Studywhat: Candlestick,More Samples,%Even though no index was used in creating the %first record in Clue, another set can be appended %by using an index.Clue(2).w

33、lue.turns)/length(Clue); disp(avg_turns)18,Using Array Functions,% Since Clue(1).turns is null, , we can assign it a value. Clue(1).turns = 17;%Below, notice the lack of an index for Clue and the square brackets %around Clue.turn. This combination returns a vector of turns to the %MATLAB function, s

34、um, which calculates the sum of that vector.%The length function returns the number of records in Clue. %Dividing the sum by the number of records gives us the average %of the numbers stored in turns. avg_turns = sum(Clue.turns)/length(Clue);%Then we display our results, show 18 as the average. disp
