So I have to use a for loop because I'm a student and the teacher said so. I've been trying to figure this one out and I'm sure theres a simple solution but because we are using matlab there aren't a whole lot of tutorials on using for loops when array operations are so much better.
I need to calculate the specific humidity using a for loop.
The equation is: q = (E*e)/P
where E = 0.622, e is a 96×144 matrix and, P represents p1 in my code which is another 96×144 matrix
I've coded something but I feel like the for loop is too simple.
Also the for loop and array operation return different values…is this normal?
% use for loop to calculate specific humidity
for q = 1:numel(p1) q_for = (0.622.*e)./(p1(q));end% calculate specific humidity using array operations
q_array = (0.622.*e)./p1;
