convert metres to feet inches in matlab

To convert metres to feet and inches in MATLAB, you can use the following code:

main.m
% Define the length in metres
length_m = 2.5;

% Convert to inches
length_in = length_m*39.37;

% Convert to feet and inches
length_ft = floor(length_in/12);
length_inch = round(length_in - length_ft*12);

% Display the result
fprintf('%.1f metres is equivalent to %d feet and %d inches\n', length_m, length_ft, length_inch);

In the above code, we first define the length in metres. We then convert this to inches by multiplying it by the conversion factor of 39.37.

We then convert the length in inches to feet and inches by dividing it by 12 and taking the floor to get the whole number of feet, and then taking the remainder to get the number of inches. We round the number of inches to the nearest whole number using the round function.

Finally, we display the result using fprintf. The output will be in the format "x metres is equivalent to y feet and z inches".
