How can I implement these equations in Matlab programming?

Hi guys, I got to analyse image that is created by Atomic Force Microscope so contains different height values. But I want to make sure I implement these equations correctly, can somebody please help. Would be much appreciated.
Best regards, Matiss

It's hard to help unless you show us the code you've written.

There is no code I have Written yet. I got to understand how to express these mathematical expressions in the matlab. I have 2 D matrix. MN is the area of the image, I know that. and Z are the image values. but how do I get the integrations and the whole equation.

If you have your height values in a 2D matrix Z, use
sa = mean2(abs(Z));
sq = sqrt(mean2(Z.^2))
sz = max(Z(:)) - min(Z(:))

@Matiss - you need to divide by area if you want normalized numbers. You can be rest assured these results from code by @Thorsten is only off by a constant scale factor (of area of image in question with additional fixed constants) from this other software you are mentioning.

You don't have to divide by MN, this is done by the mean2 function. Can you check results with small images an find out which result is correct?
