matlab gui in matlab

MATLAB provides a guide tool that allows you to create GUIs (Graphical User Interfaces) without having to write any code. Here are the steps to create a GUI using the guide tool:

  1. Open MATLAB and click on the "APPS" tab in the toolbar.
  2. Search for "GUIDE" and click on it.
  3. In the GUIDE window, select the type of layout you want for your GUI.
  4. Add components, such as buttons, text boxes, and sliders, from the "Component palette" on the left.
  5. Arrange the components as desired.
  6. Set properties of the components from the "Property inspector" on the right.
  7. Customize the callbacks for each component by editing the corresponding code in the "Editor" tab.

Once you have created your GUI, you can run it by clicking on the green "Play" button in the guide window.

Here's an example of a simple GUI created using GUIDE that displays a plot based on user input:

main.m
function varargout = simple_gui(varargin)
% SIMPLE_GUI MATLAB code for simple_gui.fig
%      SIMPLE_GUI, by itself, creates a new SIMPLE_GUI or raises the existing
%      singleton*.
%
%      H = SIMPLE_GUI returns the handle to a new SIMPLE_GUI or the handle to
%      the existing singleton*.
%
%      SIMPLE_GUI('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
%      function named CALLBACK in SIMPLE_GUI.M with the given input arguments.
%
%      SIMPLE_GUI('Property','Value',...) creates a new SIMPLE_GUI or raises the
%      existing singleton*.  Starting from the left, property value pairs are
%      applied to the GUI before simple_gui_OpeningFcn gets called.  An
%      unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application
%      stop.  All inputs are passed to simple_gui_OpeningFcn via varargin.
%
%      *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu.  Choose "GUI allows only one
%      instance to run (singleton)".
