Hi I have a set of x and y coordinates which form the corners of a polygon. I need to calculate area manually using the shoelace formula as illustrated below.

I need to do this way of multiplying to get two vectors using vectorization. I am not sure of how I would write code for this. It needs to be so that if the amount of corners increased or there values their values changed this would be accounted for.

Thanks,

在 MATLAB Online 中打开

>> edit polyarea

Look at the code, it implements the surveyor's formula that you have.

Is this homework, where you need to use that? Otherwise, just use the built in polyarea() function.

I have an assignment where I need to formulate a method to come up with the area of any simple polygon. I am using this method. We have been told we cant use polyarea().

You should have tagged it as homework then, but I did it for you. So, first read this: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/8626-how-do-i-get-help-on-homework-questions-on-matlab-answers then show how you made some nested for loops to do the multiplication and ask for help. But you need to do something first. We can't just hand over a turnkey homework solution to you.
