MATLAB: Does the integral not work without the command “global”

globalintegralMATLAB

function y=integrand1(t)
%UNTITLED3 Summary of this function goes here
%   Detailed explanation goes here
global a k
y=a.*t.^k;
end
%Mainprogram
clc
clear all
global a k
%%




a=1;
k=1;
T=1;
q=integral(@integrand1,0,T);
%%
a=2;
k=1;
T=1;
b=integral(@integrand1,0,T);
%%
a=1;
k=2;
T=1;
c=integral(@integrand1,0,T);
%%
a=1;
k=1;
T=2;
d=integral(@integrand1,0,T);
%%
disp('answers for the integrals are: ')
disp([q     b     c       d])

so my question is, how come the code won't work if i just remove the global command?

I have tried only crunching the first integral while getting rid of the Global command in both the function file and the main script but nop o.O

I'm curios as to what the global command actually does, the description is kinda hard to understand, maybe im super dumb.

Anyhow thanks on advance!

To get rid of global, implement as follows

a=1;
k=1;
T=1;
q=integral(@(t)a.*t.^k,0,T);

You can use in-built MATLAB function,

 taylor(f,var)

to generate Taylor series. For your case, the code will look like

syms x
k=1;  %%Add your own value pf 'k'
x1=1; %%Add your own value of 'x1'
t=1;  %%Add your own value of 't'
f=sin(k*(x-x1)-4*(k^3)*t);
taylor(f,x)

This code will give you Taylor's Series for your function. Hope that helps.

MATLAB: Addition of two DNA sequenc

Hi,

There are a couple of minor issues with your implementation that is causing a problem.

Your function is missing an end statement.
Assuming that you wanted to send the ith character of P_DNA1 and P_DNA2 to the function DNA_add, the quotation marks are not needed.
The variable d3 gets overwritten at each iteration of the loop rather than the result of DNA_add being appended to d3.

Here is the modified code which should resolve these issues:

P_DNA1='ACAAGGGTTTAAACCCTTAC';
P_DNA2='TTTTGGGAAATGTGACATAT';
[m n]=size(P_DNA1);
mn=m*n;
d3=[];
for i = 1:mn
      d3 = [d3 DNA_add(P_DNA1(i),P_DNA2(i))];
end
function K = DNA_add(Q1,Q2)
if Q1=='A' && Q2=='A';
    K = 'A';
elseif Q1=='A' && Q2=='G';
    K = 'G';
elseif Q1=='A' && Q2=='C';
    K = 'C';
elseif Q1=='A' && Q2=='T';
    K = 'T';
elseif Q1=='G' && Q2=='A';
    K = 'G';
elseif Q1=='G' && Q2=='G';
    K = 'C';
elseif Q1=='G' && Q2=='C';
    K = 'T';
elseif Q1=='G' && Q2=='T';
    K = 'A';
elseif Q1=='C' && Q2=='A';
    K = 'C';
elseif Q1=='C' && Q2=='G';
    K = 'T';
elseif Q1=='C' && Q2=='C';
    K = 'A';
elseif Q1=='C' && Q2=='T';
    K = 'G';
elseif Q1=='T' && Q2=='A';
    K = 'T';
elseif Q1=='T' && Q2=='G';
    K = 'A';
elseif Q1=='T' && Q2=='C';
    K = 'G';
elseif Q1=='T' && Q2=='T';
    K = 'C';
end
end
