write code for ping in matlab

In MATLAB, you can use the built-in ping function to send ICMP echo request packets to a target host, and measure the round-trip time for the responses. Here's an example of how to use it:

main.m
% Replace 'www.google.com' with the hostname or IP address that you want to ping
host = 'www.google.com';

% Call the ping function with the hostname or IP address as argument
[status, rtt] = ping(host);

% The 'status' output indicates whether the ping was successful (1) or not (0)
if status
    fprintf('Ping to %s successful. RTT = %.4f ms\n', host, rtt);
else
    fprintf('Ping to %s failed\n', host);
end
411 chars
13 lines

This will output something like:

main.m
Ping to www.google.com successful. RTT = 48.6560 ms
52 chars
2 lines

Note that the ping function sends four packets by default, and returns the average round-trip time (rtt) in milliseconds. You can customize the number of packets and other options using name-value pairs (see the documentation for more details).
