To find the diameter of a cuboid in MATLAB, you can use the built-in function norm
to calculate the distance between any two points in a 3D coordinate system. The maximum distance between any two points on the surface of the cuboid is equal to the diameter.
Here is an example code snippet that calculates the diameter of the cuboid with dimensions a
, b
, and c
:

This code defines the dimensions of the cuboid, and then defines the coordinates of the eight corner points of the cuboid. It then calculates the distances between these points using the pdist
function, and finds the maximum distance between all pairs of points to get the diameter of the cuboid. Finally, it plots the cuboid using the fill3
function to create six faces of the cuboid.
The output will be a 3D plot of the cuboid with its dimensions and the calculated diameter in the title of the figure.
