nonconformant arguments, Array substitution

data = dlmread('C:\Users\Acer\Desktop\project hydro\Offset.txt');

disp(data)

prompt = "\nEnter the value of wl? = ";

x = input(prompt);

wl= data(2:x+2,1)

Breadth= data(2:x+1,2) %input wl

Area=[1;4;2;4;2;4;2;4;1].*Breadth;

disp(Area);

TotalArea=sum(Area)

%How do i get the array i made to multiply with the array for area

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

You cannot. Breadth is a column vector of length x. [1;4;2;4;2;4;2;4;1] is a column vector of length 9. You cannot multiply those together unless x is 1 or 9.

I suspect that you should be looking at trapz()
