create a loop that updates the current value based on the previous value in matlab

In MATLAB, you can create a loop that updates the current value based on the previous value using a for loop or a while loop.

Here's an example using a for loop:

main.m
% Initialize the current value
currentValue = 0;

% Create a for loop to update the current value based on the previous value
for i = 1:n  % Replace n with the desired number of iterations
    % Update the current value based on the previous value
    currentValue = updateFunction(currentValue);
end

% Display the final value
disp(currentValue);

In this example, currentValue is initialized to some initial value, and then a for loop is created to iterate a given number of times (n) using the loop variable i.

Inside the loop, you can call an update function (updateFunction) that takes the current value as input and returns the updated value based on the previous value. You can define this updateFunction based on your specific requirements.

Finally, outside the loop, you can display the final value of currentValue.

Remember to replace n with the desired number of iterations and define the updateFunction according to your needs.

Alternatively, you can use a while loop to update the current value based on a certain condition.
