Hi, I am trying to figure out why is not plotting, this is the error that I get Error using ==> plot Vectors must be the same lengths. any advice?
if true
if true
i=1;
for q=0:0.05:4;
x(i)=q;
s(i)=quad('sin(x.^2)',0,x(i));
c(i)=quad('cos(x.^2)',0,x(i));
i=i+1;
end
fprintf('\n The value of s(x)=%5.3f',s(i-1))
fprintf('\n The value of c(x)=%5.3f\n',c(i-1))
plot(x,s,x,c)
xlabel('x')
ylabel(' C(x) and S(x)')
grid
figure
plot(c,s)
xlabel('c'),ylabel('s')
end

the code will work.
other variant:
q=0:0.05:4;
s = arrayfun(@(z)quad(@(z)sin(z^2),0,z),q);
c = arrayfun(@(z)quad(@(z)cos(z^2),0,z),q);
plot(q,[s;c]);
figure,plot(c,s);

The code inserts new values to an eventually existing variable. A pre-allocation would solve this:
x = 0:0.04:4;
n = length(x);
s = zeros(1, n); % Pre-allocate and replace existing x, s and c
c = zeros(1, n);
for k = 1:n
s(k) = quad('sin(x.^2)', 0, x(k));
c(k) = quad('cos(x.^2)', 0, x(k));
end
