help me create a simple animation, using plot, with inputs supplied by an ode45 solver in matlab

To create a simple animation using plots with inputs supplied by an ode45 solver in MATLAB, you can follow these steps:

1. Solve your differential equation using ode45 to obtain the necessary data points for animation.
2. Create a figure and axis for plotting.
3. Use a loop to update the plot in each iteration for animation.

Here is a simple example to demonstrate how you can achieve this:

main.m
% Define the differential equation
ode = @(t, y) -y;

% Solve the ode using ode45
[t, y] = ode45(ode, [0, 10], 1);

% Create a figure
figure;
axis tight manual;
xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Value');

% Initialize the plot
p = plot(t(1), y(1), 'Marker', 'o');
ylim([min(y), max(y)]); % adjust y-axis limits as needed

for i = 2:length(t)
    % Update plot data
    p.XData = t(1:i);
    p.YData = y(1:i);
    
    % Add a pause to control the animation speed
    pause(0.1);
end

In this example, ode defines the differential equation, ode45 solves the ode, and the loop updates the plot data for each time step to create an animation.

You can customize this code according to your specific differential equation and animation requirements.
