2 Create a matlab function that calculates x for a specified

2. Create a matlab function that calculates x for a specified x and no. Write a matlab script that uses this function to graph x, y-x2, y x3, y on the same graph

Solution

%function to compute x^n
function [result] = power(x, n)
result = x.^n;
end

%array of 10 elements for plotting
x = [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10];

%use power function to compute Y\'s
y1 = power(x,1)
y2 = power(x,2)
y3 = power(x,3)
y4 = power(x,4)

%plot the figure
figure
subplot(2,2,1)   
plot(x,y1)   
title(\'Linear\')

subplot(2,2,2)   
plot(x,y2)
title(\'Quadratic\')

subplot(2,2,3)   
plot(x,y3)   
title(\'Cubic\')

subplot(2,2,4)
plot(x,y4)
title(\'X ^ 4\')
