plot a circle using a for loop in matlab

To plot a circle in MATLAB using a for loop, you can try the following code:

main.m
% Define radius of circle and the number of points to use for the circle
radius = 5;
num_points = 100;

% Create empty vectors for x and y coordinates
x = zeros(num_points,1);
y = zeros(num_points,1);

% Loop through each point on the circle
for i = 1:num_points
    % Calculate the angle for each point
    theta = 2*pi*(i-1)/num_points;
    
    % Calculate the x and y coordinates for each point
    x(i) = radius*cos(theta);
    y(i) = radius*sin(theta);
end

% Plot the circle
plot(x,y);
axis equal;

This code first defines the radius of the circle and the number of points to use for the circle. It then creates empty vectors for the x and y coordinates of each point on the circle.

The for loop then loops through each point on the circle (based on the number of points specified) and calculates the x and y coordinates for each point using trigonometry.

Finally, the code plots the circle using the plot function and sets the aspect ratio of the plot to be equal using the axis equal function.

Note that there are many ways to plot a circle in MATLAB, including without a for loop, but this is one way to do it using a for loop.
