Performing calculations on a vector

I have a vector of (50,1) I need to apply a formula and perform calculations on each element in the vector how do I achieve this?

[James Tursa]

Depends on the formula and whether the functions involved are vectorized or not. You may have to write a loop. What is your formula?

[ReturnToCastle]

It is 20log10(4πd/λ), where d represents the elements in the vector

Answer 1

[James Tursa]

The log10( ) function is vectorized, so just this

result = 20 * log10(4*pi*d./lambda);

This helped a lot, thank you

Using elementwise functions and operators.

v.^2;
v.*m;%v and m same size
v./m;%v and m same size
v.^m;%va and m same size
