MATLAB basics 8 - conditionals if statement

A typical engineering algorithm or procedure will involve some decision making process, for example if it is hot, turning the central heating off. This resource shows how MATLAB enables decision making to be embedded efficiently and intuitively in any sequences of commands. Four videos look at four mains concepts: the use of if - else - end statements, the use of while - end statements, the use of switch - case - end statements and the use of logical variables.

Lectures aimed at engineering undergraduates. Presentation focuses on understanding key prinicples, processes and problem solving rather than mathematical rigour.
