How to compute given values in the edit text box with a formula just by using a button?

1 view (last 30 days)
This is the case statement of the program I would like to accomplish.
  1. Ask for the value of different variables such as (Initial Velocity, Initial Height, Angle)
  2. Choose what type of unit using the drop down menu (MKS or FPS)
  3. Push a button to provide values for (Maximum Height, Distance, Time of Flight, Gravity and to Plot)
My code is here attached. classdef app1 < matlab.apps.AppBase

Hey Carlo,
According to me you wish to calculate few parameter based upon the input fields. I would suggest few minor corrections to your code for function "PlotButtonPushed". More information can be found on following documentation.
v = app.InitialVelocitymsEditField.Value;
h = app.InitialHeightmEditField.Value;
a = deg2rad(app.AngledegreesEditField.Value);
d = app.DistancemEditField.Value;
if(strcmpi(app.UnitDropDown.Value, 'FPS'))
app.GravitymsEditField.Value = -9.81;
elseif strcmpi(app.UnitDropDown.Value, 'MKS')
app.GravitymsEditField.Value =-32.174;
end
app.DistancemEditField.Value = v.^(2).*(sin(a))/app.GravitymsEditField.Value;
You could add your further calculations for "Maximum Height", "Time of Flight" in a similar fashion.
Currently I am not sure of what exactly you want to plot, if you could provide more information then I will be able to help you further.
Hope this helps.
