confetti code in matlab

Here is an example of how to create a confetti animation in MATLAB:

main.m
% Set up confetti size, colors, and number of particles
confettiSize = 10;
confettiColors = ['r', 'g', 'b', 'y', 'm', 'c'];
numParticles = 1000;

% Create figure and axis
figure;
axis([0 1 0 1], 'equal');
axis off;

% Create particles and save handle to particles matrix
particles = zeros(numParticles, 2);
for i = 1:numParticles
    particles(i, :) = [rand rand];
    patch(particles(i, 1), particles(i, 2), confettiColors(randi(length(confettiColors))), 'FaceAlpha', 1, 'LineWidth', 0.1, 'EdgeColor', 'k', 'Marker', 'o', 'MarkerSize', confettiSize);
end

% Animate particles
while true
    % Randomly move particles
    particles = particles + 0.01 * randn(size(particles));
    
    % Wrap particles
    particles = mod(particles, 1);
    
    % Update particle positions
    for i = 1:numParticles
        set(particles(i, 3), 'XData', particles(i, 1), 'YData', particles(i, 2));
    end
    
    % Pause before next frame
    pause(0.01);
end

This code generates a specified number of particles of a given size and color, and animates them by randomly moving them and wrapping them around the screen. The patch function is used to create the particles initially, and the set function is used to update their positions in the animation loop.

Note that this animation will continue indefinitely until stopped manually.
