Using a for loop to test values in an equation
Show older comments
I'm trying to use matlab to get values from an equation at different input values. I figured it would be easier on excel, but I couldn't get the equation to work for some reason. I'm analyzing a soil and trying to test equations for different angles of friction inputted from 0 to 90. It's been a while since I've taken a matlab class so I can't quite remember how to work a for loop. My goal is to have 90 values given to me that I could use to plug into excel and make a graph against my other axis dataset. Here's what i currently have. If another function works better for this that would also be okay. It also has to use degrees in the sin, cos and tan functions.
%i = 0; wasn't sure if I needed this
for i = 1:90
cVal = (350+(121*(5)-62.4*(4))*(cosd(i)^2)*(tand(24)))/(121*(5)*(sind(i))*(cosd(i)))
%above is the equation I need to test different values in.
%res = sprintf('%d\n', i); Wasn't sure if i needed this either
%it didn't work either way
end
