plot a ship in matlab

To plot a ship in MATLAB in 2D graphics, you can use the patch function to create a polygonal shape resembling a ship. Here is an example code:

main.m
% Define the vertices of the ship polygon
ship = [-10,-5; -5,0; -10,5; 10,5; 5,0; 10,-5];

% Plot the ship polygon
patch(ship(:,1), ship(:,2), 'blue');

% Customize the plot
axis([-15, 15, -10, 10]);
axis square;
xlabel('x-axis');
ylabel('y-axis');
title('Ship Plot');

In this example, we define the ship variable as a 6-by-2 matrix that contains the (x,y) coordinates of the ship polygon vertices. We then use the patch function to create the polygon and fill it with blue color. Finally, we customize the plot by setting the axis limits, making the aspect ratio square, and adding axis labels and a title.

You can modify the ship variable to change the shape of the ship as desired.
