There are a host of problems on Cody that require manipulation of the digits of a number. Examples include summing the digits of a number, separating the number into its powers, and adding very large numbers together.
If you haven't come across this trick yet, you might want to write it down (or save it electronically):
digits = num2str(4207) - '0'
That code results in the following:
digits =
4 2 0 7
Now, summing the digits of the number is easy:
sum(digits)
ans =
13

Hallo zusammen,
seit ein paar Tagen werden sämtliche meiner Visualisierungen nicht mehr aktualisiert. Im Editiermodus läuft der Code durch und die Grafik wird korrekt erzeugt.
Hat jemand eine Idee was da schief läuft?
Danke & viele Grüße
Hi Helpdesk,
I urgently seek assistance with an issue that has persisted for a week. I am using Node-RED to interface my gateway and vibration sensor. The sensor sends 960 packets of X, Y, and Z data every 5 minutes. I retrieve and send this data through my Thingspeak42 node to my Thingspeak channel.
I am subscribed to the Thingspeak Student paid plan (see attached "12.png"). Despite this, Thingspeak is inconsistently snipping my data. For example, my X-field sometimes receives only 78 out of 960 points, and similar inconsistencies occur with the Y and Z fields.
Attached is "vibration data node red.png," showing an attempt to send just 120 packets to my Thingspeak channel. However, only 93 data points are received. Also attached is a JSON snapshot of field 2 - X_values, showing only 93 points ("JSON Field 2 data.png"). This is disappointing given that I am paying for the student plan, which should support 33 million points/year per unit (~90,000/day per unit).
I urgently require an explanation and resolution for this issue. Please provide immediate assistance.
Kind regards,
Krish
I have an Arduino Uno R3 with an integrated ESP 8266. With the Arduino Uno, I measure some capacitive humidity sensors and a DHT 22 temperature and humidity sensor. The measurements are sent to the serial port and the ESP 8266 picks them up and uploads them to ThingSpeak. My problem is that it does this randomly and not in the assigned fields. Could someone help me? Thank you very much
Hi team,
Could you please confirm us about the process power and computational capacity of ThingSpeak i.e. how quickly and efficiently my MATLAB code can execute on ThingSpeak? What other specifications related to data communication and integration are there in ThingSpeak? As all specifications are not mentioned here: https://thingspeak.com/prices/thingspeak_academic
Thanks.
Regards,

A high school student called for help with this physics problem:
- Car A moves with constant velocity v.
- Car B starts to move when Car A passes through the point P.
- Car B undergoes...
- uniform acc. motion from P to Q.
- uniform velocity motion from Q to R.
- uniform acc. motion from R to S.
- Car A and B pass through the point R simultaneously.
- Car A and B arrive at the point S simultaneously.
Q1. When car A passes the point Q, which is moving faster?
Q2. Solve the time duration for car B to move from P to Q using L and v.
Q3. Magnitude of acc. of car B from P to Q, and from R to S: which is bigger?
Well, it can be solved with a series of tedious equations. But... how about this?
Code below:

Hi,
I'm a Analysis and systems development student.
Last friday i've created a GPS tracker, using thingspeak api and server, it was working fine until this morning, now it stops.
what could have happened?
i've not even touched the code these days
I isolated a var that I'm interested in, and I want to connect Node-RED to thingspeak to show the values on the graph. The problem is the node "mqttout": I connected it to the server mqtt3.thingspeak.com and the port 1883, and with the device with right username and password. It shows "connected", but the graph is still the same, I can not upload the varabiles.
Kindly assist. Im getting this error message when i try to upload to my esp8266 board. I have tried reinstalling arduino ide and libraries. Have also replaced my previous board with a new one.
" fatal esptool.py error occurred: Cannot configure port, something went wrong. Original message: PermissionError(13, 'A device attached to the system is not functioning.', None, 31)esptool.py v3.0
Serial port COM9"
Updating some of my educational Livescripts to 2024a, really love the new "define a function anywhere" feature, and have a "new" idea for improving Livescripts -- support "hidden" code blocks similar to the Jupyter Notebooks functionality.
For example, I often create "complicated" plots with a bunch of ancillary items and I don't want this code exposed to the reader by default, as it might confuse the reader. For example, consider a Livescript that might read like this:
-----
Noting the similar structure of these two mappings, let's now write a function that simply maps from some domain to some other domain using change of variable.
function x = ChangeOfVariable( x, from_domain, to_domain )
x = x - from_domain(1);
x = x * ( ( to_domain(2) - to_domain(1) ) / ( from_domain(2) - from_domain(1) ) );
x = x + to_domain(1);
end
Let's see this function in action
% HIDE CELL
clear
close all
from_domain = [-1, 1];
to_domain = [2, 7];
from_values = [-1, -0.5, 0, 0.5, 1];
to_values = ChangeOfVariable( from_values, from_domain, to_domain )
to_values = 1×5
2.0000 3.2500 4.5000 5.7500 7.0000
We can plot the values of from_values and to_values, showing how they're connected to each other:
% HIDE CELL
figure
hold on
for n = 1 : 5
plot( [from_values(n) to_values(n)], [1 0], Color="k", LineWidth=1 )
end
ax = gca;
ax.YTick = [];
ax.XLim = [ min( [from_domain, to_domain] ) - 1, max( [from_domain, to_domain] ) + 1 ];
ax.YLim = [-0.5, 1.5];
ax.XGrid = "on";
scatter( from_values, ones( 5, 1 ), Marker="s", MarkerFaceColor="flat", MarkerEdgeColor="k", SizeData=120, LineWidth=1, SeriesIndex=1 )
text( mean( from_domain ), 1.25, "$\xi$", Interpreter="latex", HorizontalAlignment="center", VerticalAlignment="middle" )
scatter( to_values, zeros( 5, 1 ), Marker="o", MarkerFaceColor="flat", MarkerEdgeColor="k", SizeData=120, LineWidth=1, SeriesIndex=2 )
text( mean( to_domain ), -0.25, "$x$", Interpreter="latex", HorizontalAlignment="center", VerticalAlignment="middle" )
scaled_arrow( ax, [mean( [from_domain(1), to_domain(1) ] ) - 1, 0.5], ( 1 - 0 ) / ( from_domain(1) - to_domain(1) ), 1 )
scaled_arrow( ax, [mean( [from_domain(end), to_domain(end)] ) + 1, 0.5], ( 1 - 0 ) / ( from_domain(end) - to_domain(end) ), -1 )
text( mean( [from_domain(1), to_domain(1) ] ) - 1.5, 0.5, "$x(\xi)$", Interpreter="latex", HorizontalAlignment="center", VerticalAlignment="middle" )
text( mean( [from_domain(end), to_domain(end)] ) + 1.5, 0.5, "$\xi(x)$", Interpreter="latex", HorizontalAlignment="center", VerticalAlignment="middle" )
-----
Where scaled_arrow is some utility function I've defined elsewhere... See how a majority of the code is simply "drivel" to create the plot, clear and close? I'd like to be able to hide those cells so that it would look more like this:

Thoughts?
I recently had issues with code folding seeming to disappear and it turns out that I had unknowingly disabled the "show code folding margin" option by accident. Despite using MATLAB for several years, I had no idea this was an option, especially since there seemed to be no references to it in the code folding part of the "Preferences" menu.
It would be great if in the future, there was a warning that told you about this when you try enable/disable folding in the Preferences.
I am using 2023b by the way.
In the MATLAB editor, when clicking on a variable name, all the other instances of the variable name will be highlighted.
But this does not work for structure fields, which is a pity. Such feature would be quite often useful for me.
I show an illustration below, and compare it with Visual Studio Code that does it. ;-)
I am using MATLAB R2023a, sorry if it has been added to newer versions, but I didn't see it in the release notes.
I have noticed that any of thingspeak channels (irrespective of Public or private) can be read by using below request.
this reduces the security of the channel. If the channel is Private without the valid Read key it should not be able to read from the channel.
Am i missing something??
I have a LORA node up-linking data to a Thingspeak channel via The Things Network (TTN). Sometimes it stops sending data and I reboot it by logging into my console on TTN and sending a re-boot down-link message to the node. Is there any way I can transmit a downlink message to the node direct from Thinkspeak?
Hi may iknow why when i add widget gauge, the guage dont show the display
