Transforming Snake Animation!

Lots of students like me have a break from school this week or next! If y'all are looking for something interesting to do learn a bit about using hgtransform by making the transforming snake animation in MATLAB!
Code below!
⬇️⬇️⬇️
numblock=24;
v = [ -1 -1 -1 ; 1 -1 -1 ; -1 1 -1 ; -1 1 1 ; -1 -1 1 ; 1 -1 1 ];
f = [ 1 2 3 nan; 5 6 4 nan; 1 2 6 5; 1 5 4 3; 3 4 6 2 ];
clr = hsv(numblock);

P=hgtransform('Parent',gca,'Matrix',makehgtform('xrotate',pi*.5,'zrotate',pi*-.8));
for i = 1:numblock
P = hgtransform('Parent',P,'Matrix',xform(shapes(end,i)*pi));
patch('Parent',P, 'Vertices', v, 'Faces', f, 'FaceColor',clr(i,:),'EdgeColor','none');
patch('Parent',P, 'Vertices', v*.75, 'Faces', f(end,:), 'FaceColor','none',...
'EdgeColor','w','LineWidth',2);
end
view([10 60]);

% Setup vectors for animation
h=findobj(gca,'type','hgtransform')'; h=h(2:end);
r=shapes(end,:)*pi;
steps=100;
% Animate between different shapes
for si = 1:size(shapes,1)

The File Exchange team is thrilled to introduce a more streamlined approach to working with GitHub and File Exchange - the MATLAB and Simulink Integration for GitHub!
Key Enhancements:
- Improves the existing connection between File Exchange and GitHub, ensuring quicker reflection of changes made in GitHub within File Exchange.
- Aligns with GitHub's standard and supported approach to building integrations.
Action Required for File Exchange Contributors!
If you are a File Exchange contributor and have linked any submissions to GitHub, it is essential to install the App.
Starting April 16, 2024, your File Exchange submissions will no longer update automatically unless you take the following steps:
1. Visit your My File Exchange page.
2. Follow the prompts on the page to install MATLAB and Simulink Integration for GitHub.
3. Complete the necessary steps in GitHub.
4. Return to the My File Exchange page and verify the installation.
A detailed description of the process is available here.
If you prefer your File Exchange submission not to update automatically from GitHub, no action is required. Users will still be able to find and download your submissions. However, to release a new version of your code, you must either install the GitHub App or disconnect from GitHub and manually upload new versions of your code.
Should you have any questions or encounter issues with the App, please feel free to comment on this post!
Several of the colormaps are great for a 256 color surface plot, but aren't well optimized for extracting m colors for plotting several independent lines. The issue is that many colormaps have start/end colors that are too similar or are suboptimal colors for lines. There are certainly many workarounds for this, but it would be a great quality of life to adjust that directly when calling this.
Example:
x = linspace(0,2*pi,101)';
y = [1:6].*cos(x);
figure; plot(x,y,'LineWidth',2); grid on; axis tight;
And now if I wanted to color these lines, I could use something like turbo(6) or gray(6) and then apply it using colororder.
colororder(turbo(6))
But my issue is that the ends of the colormap are too similar. For other colormaps, you may get lines that are too light to be visible against the white background. There are plenty of workarounds, with my preference being to create extra colors and truncate that before using colororder.
cmap = turbo(8); cmap = cmap(2:end-1,:); % Truncate the end colors
figure; plot(x,y,'LineWidth',2); grid on; axis tight;
colororder(cmap)
I think it would be really awesome to add some name-argument input pair to these colormaps that can specify the range you want so this could even be done inside the colororder calling if desired. An example of my proposed solution would look something like this:
cmap = turbo(6,'Range',[0.1 0.8]); % Proposed idea to add functionality
Where in this scenario, the resulting colormap would be 6 equally spaced colors that range from 10% to 80% of the total color range. This would be especially nice because you could more quickly modify the range of colors, or you could set the limits regardless of whether you need to plot 3, 6, or 20 lines.
I asked my question in the general forum and a few minutes later it was deleted. Perhaps this is a better place?
Rather than using my German regional forum (as I do not speak German), I want to ask questions in an international English-speaking forum. Presumably there should be an international English forum for everyone around the world, as English is the first or second language of everyone who has gone to school. Where is it?

2 x 2 행렬의 행렬식은
  • 행렬의 두 row 벡터로 정의되는 평행사변형의 면적입니다.
  • 물론 두 column 벡터로 정의되는 평행사변형의 면적이기도 합니다.
  • 좀 더 정확히는 signed area입니다. 면적이 음수가 될 수도 있다는 뜻이죠.
  • 행렬의 두 행(또는 두 열)을 맞바꾸면 행렬식의 부호도 바뀌고 면적의 부호도 바뀌어야합니다.
일반적으로 n x n 행렬의 행렬식은
  • 각 row 벡터(또는 각 column 벡터)로 정의되는 N차원 공간의 평행면체(?)의 signed area입니다.
  • 제대로 이해하려면 대수학의 개념을 많이 가지고 와야 하는데 자세한 설명은 생략합니다.(=저도 모른다는 뜻)
  • 더 자세히 알고 싶으시면 수학하는 만화의 '넓이 이야기' 편을 추천합니다.
  • 수학적인 정의를 알고 싶으시면 위키피디아를 보시면 됩니다.
  • 이렇게 생겼습니다. 좀 무섭습니다.
아래 코드는...
  • 2 x 2 행렬에 대해서 이것을 수식 없이 그림만으로 증명하는 과정입니다.
  • gif 생성에는 ScreenToGif를 사용했습니다. (gif 만들기엔 이게 킹왕짱인듯)
Determinant of 2 x 2 matrix is...
  • An area of a parallelogram defined by two row vectors.
  • Of course, same one defined by two column vectors.
  • Precisely, a signed area, which means area can be negative.
  • If two rows (or columns) are swapped, both the sign of determinant and area change.
More generally, determinant of n x n matrix is...
  • Signed area of parallelepiped defined by rows (or columns) of the matrix in n-dim space.
  • For a full understanding, a lot of concepts from abstract algebra should be brought, which I will not write here. (Cuz I don't know them.)
  • For a mathematical definition of determinant, visit wikipedia.
  • A little scary, isn't it?
The code below is...
  • A process to prove the equality of the determinant of 2 x 2 matrix and the area of parallelogram.
  • ScreenToGif is used to generate gif animation (which is, to me, the easiest way to make gif).

Prize Wheel?

I was looking into the possibility of making a spin-to-win prize wheel in MATLAB. I was looking around, and if someone has made one before they haven't shared. A labeled colored spinning wheel, that would slow down and stop (or I would take just stopping) at a random spot each time. I would love any tips or links to helpful resources!
Greetings to all MATLAB users,
Although the MATLAB Flipbook contest has concluded, the pursuit of ‘learning while having fun’ continues. I would like to take this opportunity to highlight some recent insightful technical articles from a standout contest participant – Zhaoxu Liu / slandarer.
Zhaoxu has contributed eight informative articles to both the Tips & Tricks and Fun channels in our new Discussions area. His articles offer practical advice on topics such as customizing legends, constructing chord charts, and adding color to axes. Additionally, he has shared engaging content, like using MATLAB to create an interactive dragon that follows your mouse cursor, a nod to the upcoming Year of the Dragon in 2024!
I invite you to explore these articles for both enjoyment and education, and I hope you'll find new techniques to incorporate into your work.
Our community is full of individuals skilled in MATLAB, and we're always eager to learn from one another. Who would you like to see featured next? Or perhaps you have some tips & tricks of your own to contribute. Remember, sharing knowledge is a collaborative effort, as Confucius wisely stated, 'When I walk along with two others, they may serve me as my teachers.'
Let's maintain our commitment to a continuous learning journey. This could be the perfect warm-up for the upcoming 2024 contest.
Many of the examples in the MATLAB documentation are extremely high quality articles, often worthy of attention in their own right. Time to start celebrating them! Today's is how to increase Image Resolution using deep learning

Flipbook Mini Hack

I have been procrastinating on schoolwork by looking at all the amazing designs created in the last MATLAB Flipbook Mini Hack! They are just amazing. The voting is over but what are y'all's personal favorites? Mine is the flapping butterfly, it is for sure a creation I plan to share with others in the future!
Struct is an easy way to combine different types of variants. But now MATLAB supports classes well, and I think class is always a better alternative than struct. I can't find a single scenario that struct is necessary. There are many shortcomings using structs in a project, e.g. uncontrollable field names, unexamined values, etc. What's your opinion?
