Then it will calculate c1, at the end it will go back to calculate c2, and then go back and calculate c3 and stop. Regardless, given the approach you have followed, if x is equal to a, then the second half of the clause will be true, even though the first part of the clause is false. I am doing the svd in simulink, i got the eigenvalue, now i want to set some eigenvalues smaller than a given value to zero. It is designed to give students fluency in matlab programming language. User defined data structures are also available that enable the programmer to create variable types that mix numbers, strings, and arrays. A is a nonzero number or is logical 1, and returns logical 0 false if all the elements are zero.
