Many MATLAB Cody problems involve recognizing integer sequences.
If a sequence looks familiar but you can’t quite place it, the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS) can be your best friend.
OEIS will often identify the sequence, provide a formula, recurrence relation, or even direct MATLAB-compatible pseudocode.
Example: Recognizing a Cody Sequence
Suppose you encounter this sequence in a Cody problem:
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ...
Entering it on OEIS yields A000045 – The Fibonacci Numbers, defined by:
F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2), with F(1)=1, F(2)=1
You can then directly implement it in MATLAB:
function F = fibSeq(n)
F = zeros(1,n);
F(1:2) = 1;
for k = 3:n
F(k) = F(k-1) + F(k-2);
end
end
fibSeq(15)
When solving MATLAB Cody problems involving very large integers (e.g., factorials, Fibonacci numbers, or modular arithmetic), you might exceed MATLAB’s built-in numeric limits.
To overcome this, you can use Java’s java.math.BigInteger directly within MATLAB — it’s fast, exact, and often accepted by Cody if you convert the final result to a numeric or string form.
Below is an example of using it to find large factorials.
function s = bigFactorial(n)
import java.math.BigInteger
f = BigInteger('1');
for k = 2:n
f = f.multiply(BigInteger(num2str(k)));
end
s = char(f.toString); % Return as string to avoid overflow
end
bigFactorial(100)

Hey everyone,
I’m currently working with MATLAB R2025b and using the MQTT blocks from the Industrial Communication Toolbox inside Simulink. I’ve run into an issue that’s driving me a bit crazy, and I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if I’m missing something obvious.
Here’s what’s happening:
- I open the MQTT Configure block.
- I fill out all the required fields — Broker address, Port, Client ID, Username, and Password.
- When I click Test Connection, it says “Connection established successfully.” So far so good.
- Then I click Apply, close the dialog, set the topic name, and try to run the simulation.
- At this point, I get the following error:Caused by: Invalid value for 'ClientID', 'Username' or 'Password'.
- When I reopen the MQTT config block, I notice that the Password field is empty again — even though I definitely entered it before and the connection test worked earlier.
It seems like Simulink is somehow not saving the password after hitting Apply, which leads to the authentication error during simulation.
Has anyone else faced this? Is this a bug in R2025b, or do I need to configure something differently to make the password persist?
Would really appreciate any insights, workarounds, or confirmations from anyone who has used MQTT in Simulink recently.
Thanks in advance!
Automating Parameter Identifiability Analysis in SimBiology
Is it possible to develop a MATLAB Live Script that automates a series of SimBiology model fits to obtain likelihood profiles? The goal is to fit a kinetic model to experimental data while systematically fixing the value of one kinetic constant (e.g., k1) and leaving the others unrestricted.
The script would perform the following:
Use a pre-configured SimBiology project where the best fit to the experimental data has already been established (including dependent/independent variables, covariates, the error model, and optimization settings).
Iterate over a defined sequence of fixed values for a chosen parameter.
For each fixed value, run the estimation to optimize the remaining parameters.
Record the resulting Sum of Squared Errors (SSE) for each run.
The final output would be a likelihood profile—a plot of SSE versus the fixed parameter value (e.g., k1)—to assess the practical identifiability of each model parameter.
For the www, uk, and in domains,a generative search answer is available for Help Center searches. Please let us know if you get good or bad results for your searches. Some have pointed out that it is not available in non-english domains. You can switch your country setting to try it out. You can also ask questions in different languages and ask for the response in a different language. I get better results when I ask more specific queries. How is it working for you?
Hello MATLAB Central community,
My name is Yann. And I love MATLAB. I also love Python ... 🐍 (I know, not the place for that).
I recently decided to go down the rabbit hole of AI. So I started benchmarking deep learning frameworks on basic examples. Here is a recording of my experiment:
Happy to engage in the debate. What do you think?
Hi,
I have some problem, I want to upload my data that sample rate at 500HZ, every sevral seconds.
My data include 12 bytes, and it measure 500HZ, for example for 15 seconds I coolect 15*500*12 = 84KB.
Can I upload this data to ThingSpeak? It is possible to use with Free acount (I am student and this is my project)
How can help me..
Large Language Models (LLMs) with MATLAB was updated again today to support the newly released OpenAI models GPT-5, GPT-5 mini, GPT-5 nano, GPT-5 chat, o3, and o4-mini. When you create an openAIChat object, set the ModelName name-value argument to "gpt-5", "gpt-5-mini", "gpt-5-nano", "gpt-5-chat-latest", "o4-mini", or "o3".
This is version 4.4.0 of this free MATLAB add-on that lets you interact with LLMs on MATLAB. The release notes are at Release v4.4.0: Support for GPT-5, o3, o4-mini · matlab-deep-learning/llms-with-matlab
Is there a hardware support package available for the MP series?
I'm facing an issue where my Thinkspeak graph is not displaying, even though I'm using exactly the same code as my friend. The code works perfectly in their Thinkspeak account, but not on mine. I've checked the API keys, channel settings, and data formats, but everything seems similar. Has anyone else faced this problem, or do you have tips on what to check next? Suggestions are welcome!
Hi!
I'm having trouble sending data to a channel using MQTT. I'm using a program that was working perfectly until just a few days ago, but after making some minor changes yesterday, it stopped working. I’ve also tested it manually using the MQTTX client. If I send data using CURL and GET, it works fine.
It’s a bit strange...
Thankfully,
Ernesto.
Is it possible to create a Simulink model that is independent of specific microcontrollers?
For example, in the model, the STM32 block is used for CAN transmission. But if I want to deploy the same model to an Arduino, I have to replace the STM32 block with an Arduino-compatible one.
So, is it possible to create a custom block or abstraction that works across multiple microcontrollers like STM32, PIC32, and Arduino without changing the hardware-specific block each time?
Hello,
I've successfully tested the Processor-in-the-Loop (PIL) workflow in Simulink using a TI F28069M LaunchPad, following the standard examples provided by MathWorks. The PIL block, code generation, and communication all worked without issues.
Now, I’d like to run a similar PIL setup using the Infineon TLE9879 EVALKIT (based on an ARM Cortex-M0), which is not officially supported by Simulink as a target.
I’m wondering if it’s possible to configure PIL manually or via custom workflows. For example:
- Can I create a custom PIL target using Embedded Coder?
- Would I need to port rtiostream manually for communication over UART?
- Could I somehow integrate with Keil µVision (which I use for TLE9879) to build and run the generated code?
- Is there a workaround to simulate PIL behavior using a non-supported board?
My setup:
- Simulink R2024b
- Infineon TLE9879 EVALKIT
- Keil µVision 5 + Infineon Config Wizard
- UART and JTAG interfaces available
The main purpose is to validate control algorithms and measure execution time, not to implement a full HIL system.
Has anyone attempted PIL with a custom or unsupported microcontroller before? Any tips or resources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone,
Please check out our new book "Generative AI for Trading and Asset Management".
GenAI is usually associated with large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, or with image generation tools like MidJourney, essentially, machines that can learn from text or images and generate text or images. But in reality, these models can learn from many different types of data. In particular, they can learn from time series of asset returns, which is perhaps the most relevant for asset managers.
In our book (amazon.com link), we explore both the practical applications and the fundamental principles of GenAI, with a special focus on how these technologies apply to trading and asset management.
The book is divided into two broad parts:
Part 1 is written by Ernie Chan, noted author of Quantitative Trading, Algorithmic Trading, and Machine Trading. It starts with no-code applications of GenAI for traders and asset managers with little or no coding experience. After that, it takes readers on a whirlwind tour of machine learning techniques commonly used in finance.
Part 2, written by Hamlet, covers the fundamentals and technical details of GenAI, from modeling to efficient inference. This part is for those who want to understand the inner workings of these models and how to adapt them to their own custom data and applications. It’s for anyone who wants to go beyond the high-level use cases, get their hands dirty, and apply, and eventually improve these models in real-world practical applications.
Readers can start with whichever part they want to explore and learn from.
