Plot data from while loop
Show older comments
I've written an algorithm that can approximate the root of a multivariable function using the Newton-Raphon method. The algorithm, given 2 multivariable functions and 2 guess values, runs through an equation multiple times, returning the approximate root and error each iteration. I am trying to plot the error against the iteration. However, when i do so, i get a blank plot. How would I approach plotting this error data (eax and eay [found in part 3]) from the while loop against the iteration number?
Thank you
Below is the code:
disp(['<strong>Method: </strong>' 'Newton-Raphson for Simultaneous Equations'])
n = input('Desired Accuracy: ');
e = 0.5*(10^(2-n));
syms x y
Data_Vector = [f1 f2 diff(f1,x) diff(f1,y) diff(f2,x) diff(f2,y)];
Iteration = 0;
x=input('x_guess: ');
y=input('y_guess: ');
while (1)
disp('------------')
Iteration = Iteration + 1;
disp(['<strong>Iteration: </strong>' num2str(Iteration) ])
%Part 1: Initializing
x;
y;
i = Iteration - 1;
disp([ '(x_' num2str(i) ',' 'y_' num2str(i) ')' ' = ' '(' num2str(x) ',' num2str(y) ')'])
Data_Vector_Num1 = subs(Data_Vector);
Data_Vector_Num2 = double(Data_Vector_Num1);
%Part 2: Evaluation
%Part 2A: X - Root
xr = x - (Data_Vector_Num2(1)*Data_Vector_Num2(6)-Data_Vector_Num2(2)*Data_Vector_Num2(4))/(Data_Vector_Num2(3)*Data_Vector_Num2(6)-Data_Vector_Num2(4)*Data_Vector_Num2(5));
%Part 2B: Y - Root
yr = y - (Data_Vector_Num2(2)*Data_Vector_Num2(3)-Data_Vector_Num2(1)*Data_Vector_Num2(5))/(Data_Vector_Num2(3)*Data_Vector_Num2(6)-Data_Vector_Num2(4)*Data_Vector_Num2(5));
%Part 3: Approximate Error
eax = abs((xr-x)/xr)*100;
eay = abs((yr-y)/yr)*100;
%Part 4: Resetting X & Y
x=xr;
y=yr;
%Part 5: Root Check
f1_rc_a = subs(f1);
f1_rc_b = double(f1_rc_a);
f2_rc_a = subs(f2);
f2_rc_b = double(f2_rc_a);
disp([ '(x_' num2str(Iteration) ',' 'y_' num2str(Iteration) ')' ' = ' '(' num2str(x) ',' num2str(y) ')'])
disp(['Value of Root: ' 'f1(' num2str(x) ',' num2str(y) ')' ' = ' num2str(f1_rc_b) ' || ' 'f2(' num2str(x) ',' num2str(y) ')' ' = ' num2str(f2_rc_b)])
disp(['Approximate Percent Error: ' 'x:' num2str(eax) '%' ' y:' num2str(eay) '%'])
if eax < e && eay < e
break,end
end
