Finding largest y value with corresponding x value
Show older comments
I'm a beginner at this so this is making no sense. I need a code that steps through x values from xMin and xMax with step size, calculates the value of f(x) and keeps track of the largest y value and the corresponding x value. At the end, use disp() and string() to print findings as such: yMax = 1.23 at x = 4.56. There needs to be a "for loop" and maybe "if" Any help would be appreciated!

Hi friend, I'm not really sure what you need, but I did this for you, I hope it serves you.
f=@(x) x^2; %f(x)
h=0.5; %step size
domain = 0:h:4; %domain of f(x)
for i=1:length(domain) %loop
y(i)=f(domain(i));
format='current x value:%1.1f; current y value:%1.1f. \n';
%following
fprintf(format,domain(i),y(i));
end
Ymax=max(y); %find xMAX.yMAX
position = find(y==Ymax);
Xmax=domain(position);
format1='the value XMax is::%1.1f; the value YMax is:%1.1f.'; %print xMAX.yMAX
fprintf(format1,Xmax,Ymax);
