FOR Loops in MATLAB to Determine Values

Question

For the following for loop:

x = [4 8 2.1 3 9 7 1];

c = 0;

for k = 1:2:length(x)-2

if x(k) + x(k+1) > c

c = x(k) + x(k+1);

end

end

a) How many times does the for loop loop?

b) What are the values that k takes on in the loop? Ie, first time through the for loop k is --‐, second time through k is -, etc.

c)  What is the value of c after the for loop ends?

Summary

This question belongs to MATLAB software and discusses about FOR loops and to compute value of the given equation.
