% Description: M-file demonstrating the use of matlab\'s
% rlocus() and rlocfind() functions on the
% example characteristic equation
% K/(s+1)(s+6-j^2)( s+6+j^2)

% clear matlab memory and close all figures
clear all; close all;
% define numerator and denominator of L(s) and print to check
numL = [1]; denL = [1 1 0];
disp([\'L(s) = \', poly2str(numL,\'s\'), \'/\', poly2str(denL, \'s\')]);
disp(\' \');
%***** First Approach to Root Locus - Loop Over K *****
% open figure 1

% find open loop zeros and plot as o\'s,
% find open loop poles and plot as x\'s
olzeros = roots(numL);
olpoles = roots(denL);

% loop over K, find and plot closed-loop poles
for K = 0.1:0.1:10,
clpoles = roots([1, 1+K, 2*K]);
