Hi,

I am trying to plot an equation ax^2 + bx + c vs. x and I want to have sliders for parameters a, b and c and see how the plot varies with the parameters. The equation I am using is a lot more complicated but if somebody can please tell me how to add sliders, I can extend it to my problem. Its a curve fitting problem, and I am trying to fit the equation to some data manually using the sliders.

Regards,
Mihir

There is a thorough discussion and example of how to implement exactly what you describe in this book:
http://www.mathworks.com/support/books/book13266.html

Alternatively, you can figure out how to do it by looking at the documentation for uicontrol (property 'Style' = 'Slider').
