check if a value is not 0 in matlab

To check if a value x is not 0 in MATLAB, you can use the following conditional statement:

main.m
if x ~= 0
   disp('x is not equal to 0');
end

The ~= operator is the "not equal to" operator in MATLAB. If x is not equal to 0, the code inside the conditional statement will be executed. If x is equal to 0, the code inside the conditional statement will be skipped.

Alternatively, you can use the logical operator logical(x) to convert the variable x into a logical variable, which can then be used in conditional statements. Here is an example:

main.m
x = 5;
if logical(x)
   disp('x is not equal to 0');
end

In this example, the variable x is first converted into a logical variable using the logical function. Since x is not equal to 0, the value of the logical variable is true, and the code inside the conditional statement will be executed.
