Imagine that the earth is a perfect sphere with a radius of 6371000 meters and there is a rope tightly wrapped around the equator. With one line of MATLAB code determine how much the rope will be lifted above the surface if you cut it and insert a 1 meter segment of rope into it (and then expand the whole rope back into a circle again, of course).

Due to API changes at X, formerly known as Twitter, the integration between ThingSpeak and X, specifically the ThingTweet functionality, was not operational for a number of months. As of August 1st, 2024, the ThingTweet functionality is being deprecated.
The alternative, which requires manual steps due to X requiring manual application for a developer account, is to use the TWITTER function from Datafeed toolbox in MATLAB code. You can then create a React that is associated with this MATLAB code to post to X.

How can i edit my code which works on r2014b version at work but not on my personal r2024a version? by Oluwadamilola Oke
Oluwadamilola Oke is seeking assistance with a MATLAB code that works on version r2014b but encounters errors on version r2024a. The issue seems to be related to file location or the use of specific commands like movefile. If you have experience with these versions of MATLAB, your expertise could be invaluable.
Yohay has been working on a simulation to measure particle speed and fit it to the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. However, the fit isn't aligning perfectly with the data. Yohay has shared the code and histogram data for community members to review and provide suggestions.
Alessandro Livi is toggling between C++ for Arduino Pico and MATLAB App Designer. They suggest an enhancement where typing // for comments in MATLAB automatically converts to %. This small feature could improve the workflow for many users who switch between programming languages.

Athanasios Paraskevopoulos has started an engaging discussion on Gabriel's Horn, a shape with infinite surface area but finite volume. The conversation delves into the mathematical intricacies and integral calculations required to understand this paradoxical shape.
Honzik has brought up an interesting topic about custom fonts for MATLAB. While popular coding fonts handle characters like 0 and O well, they often fail to distinguish between different types of brackets. Honzik suggests that MathWorks could develop a custom font optimized for MATLAB syntax to reduce coding errors.

I use "x = ThingSpeak.writeFields(myChannelNumber1, myWriteAPIKey1);" in my code to update the ThingSpeak channel. 4 fields are associated with this channel. This statement is executed about once every 5 minutes.
Roughly 60% of the time, I got an error message "HTTP error code -301". The other 40% of time the channel update is successful. What does the "HTTP error code -301" mean? Any suggestion on how to improve the success rate of the channel update
Problem statement: I've written a visualization that I'd like to use on potentially hundreds of different channels in my commerical account. Because it contains code that's unique to the channel (channel id, read API key, etc.) I have to create and maintain a duplicate visualization for each channel. This is wasteful, a source of errors, and almost intractable for a commercial customer with a high channel count.
My request is that MATLAB Visualizations be extended to support parameters, but only a predefined set to reduce the scope. I would propose a subset of the parameters currently supported by the ThingSpeak API. For example, thingSpeakRead supports (requires) readChannelID, NumPoints, and a ReadKey etc. If those were elevated to also be allowed as Visualization parameters, I imagine it would satisfy a large subset of user needs.
The poor man's version of this would be if ThingSpeak supported just one special parameter, such as %CHANNEL_ID%. If this was available within the visualization code one could use it as a key into table to get the other pieces of data like API keys, etc. It would be have to be passed on the visualization url (https://thingspeak.com/apps/matlab_visualizations/573779?readChannelID=xxxxx). Not sure how the visualization would pick it up in the use case where it's called from the ThingSpeak website under the user's list of MATLAB Visualizations. Perhaps it can be prompted for.
I initially considered user defined functions or libraries but they are not supported and I can see that that would require even more development work to support. The workarounds described in this thread aren't suitable for me. https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/2102981-how-to-use-private-functions-lib-in-thingspeak?s_tid=srchtitle_community_thingspeak_14_libraries

how can I link a chinese flow meter to this website
Die Anzeige der Werte in den einzelnen Feldern ist nicht aktuell.
So werden z.B. um 18:00 Uhr nur die Werte bis 14:00 Uhr angezeigt, auch das verändern des Zeitfensters bringt keine Abhilfe.
Hat jemand eine Idee wie ich die der Uhrzeit ensprechenden Werte zur Anzeige bringe.
Die Werte werden von Shellies und BitShake kontinuierlich übertragen.
My thingSpeak channel kept on updateing the same signal as early eventhough my simulink have update the new signal. How to solve this?
Hi ThingSpeak Community,
I hope you are all doing well.
I am currently setting up a Vodafone ACL for a SIM card that will be used in a device destined for a remote charity deployment in a week. The goal is to ensure that the device can reliably upload data to ThingSpeak without any connectivity issues.
Here are the details of my current ACL setup:
- FQDN: api.thingspeak.com (specified as the API endpoint)
- IPv4 Address: 184.106.153.149 (found online)
- Port: (left empty)
I've attached a photo of the setup for reference.
Could you please confirm if the above ACL settings are correct? Additionally, if there are any other considerations or settings I should be aware of for ensuring reliable connectivity with ThingSpeak, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.
Currently, all I am using for the device credentials is the PIN number. Do I need to adjust any settings in the Arduino code or the ACL to maintain stable connectivity with ThingSpeak, especially considering the device will be in a remote location and difficult to access for adjustments?
Your prompt assistance and advice will be immensely valuable, as I want to ensure everything is correctly configured before deployment.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,
Arthur
Hello, everyone! I’m Mark Hayworth, but you might know me better in the community as Image Analyst. I've been using MATLAB since 2006 (18 years). My background spans a rich career as a former senior scientist and inventor at The Procter & Gamble Company (HQ in Cincinnati). I hold both master’s & Ph.D. degrees in optical sciences from the College of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona, specializing in imaging, image processing, and image analysis. I have 40+ years of military, academic, and industrial experience with image analysis programming and algorithm development. I have experience designing custom light booths and other imaging systems. I also work with color and monochrome imaging, video analysis, thermal, ultraviolet, hyperspectral, CT, MRI, radiography, profilometry, microscopy, NIR, and Raman spectroscopy, etc. on a huge variety of subjects.
I'm thrilled to participate in MATLAB Central's Ask Me Anything (AMA) session, a fantastic platform for knowledge sharing and community engagement. Following Adam Danz’s insightful AMA on staff contributors in the Answers forum, I’d like to discuss topics in the area of image analysis and processing. I invite you to ask me anything related to this field, whether you're seeking recommendations on tools, looking for tips and tricks, my background, or career development advice. Additionally, I'm more than willing to share insights from my experiences in the MATLAB Answers community, File Exchange, and my role as a member of the Community Advisory Board. If you have questions related to your specific images or your custom MATLAB code though, I'll invite you to ask those in the Answers forum. It's a more appropriate forum for those kinds of questions, plus you can get the benefit of other experts offering their solutions in addition to me.
For the coming weeks, I'll be here to engage with your questions and help shed light on any topics you're curious about.
