The Cody First XI – MATLAB Problems for Cricket Fans

Average Problem Difficulty:

You may never score more runs than Sachin. You may never take more wickets than Murali. But you can outscore them both on Cody with this cricket-themed problem set.
Created to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Cody and the 2022 T20 World Cup (which happened to occur at the same time), this problem set tests basic array manipulation and calculation, data analysis, and string processing skills.
These problems are intended mainly for the cricket nerds out there. If that’s not you, but you’re looking for a challenge, you can test your MATLAB knowledge on a whole new application area. The MATLAB is mostly straightforward. The problems can be done without knowledge of cricket (minimal explanations have been provided, as needed). But some of the cricket terminology might bend your brain, if you’re not familiar with it. (You might find yourself on a sticky wicket. It might leave you stumped. etc.)
