To create a decimal value in MATLAB, you can simply enter the value in decimal form:
main.m19 chars2 lines
You can then perform mathematical operations on this value. For example, you can add 2.5 to the decimal:
main.m30 chars2 lines
MATLAB also has built-in functions for working with decimal values, such as the round
function, which rounds a decimal value to the nearest integer:
main.m38 chars2 lines
You can display the value of a variable using the disp
function:
main.m18 chars2 lines
This will output the value of my_decimal
to the command window.
Note that MATLAB represents decimal values using double-precision floating-point format by default. If you need to perform exact decimal arithmetic, you can use the Symbolic Math Toolbox or the Variable Precision Arithmetic Toolbox.
