ABSTRACT

In this chapter we discuss some data types, classes and object-oriented programming. We can introduce the data type as a set of values defined by the operations that apply to them. In the most recent documentation provided by The MathWorks we read,

‘There are many different data types, or classes, that you can work with in the MATLAB software. You can build matrices and arrays of floating-point and integer data, characters and strings, and logical true and false states. Function handles connect your code with any MATLAB function ... Structures and cell arrays provide a way to store dissimilar types of data in the same array.
