Sample Files:
A pdf file which describes some basic features of the FreeMat environment.
One of the characteristics of FreeMat files (.m files) is that they are essentially executable code. This means that your email system or antivirus software may worry that these look a lot like computer viruses. For this reason we have found that it is best to compress the .m files before sharing them via email (the college is particularly likely to strip an attached .m file off your email). The files below are all compressed (zipped) files that your computer should be able to accept and unzip:
Getting Started for LaTeX/FreeMat Intro:
FreeMat Function Plot file: FunctionPlot.m
FreeMat Scatter Plot files: ScatterPlot.m
Freemat Plotting files: plotting.m
FreeMat Rock Drop files: Balldrop.m
FreeMat Sandbox files: Sandbox.m
FreeMat Sandbox files: Bungee2.m
Data Plot for Ape Factor Lab:
FreeMat Data Spread Example file: DataSpread.m - this is a simplified version of the histogram plotting program below. Data is manually entered.
Data Plot for Crash Cart Lab:
FreeMat Crash Cart Example file: CrashCart1.0.m - Data is manually entered.
Model for RockDrop Lab:
FreeMat Rock Drop Example file: rockdropmodel.m
This program builds a drag model for the rock that can be tuned to match your actual data (entered by hand as with previous labs). The rate of drag can be adjusted to match the date by changing kconstant which controls the amount of drag.
Histogram for Data and Meaning Lab:
FreeMat Histogram Example file: HistogramExample.m
FreeMat Test Histogram file: TestHistogram.m - this file is vastly simplified to help debug some peoples installation.
