Just in time for Halloween.
Here's a MATLAB class I wrote that leverages the MATLAB Central Interface for MATLAB toolbox, which in turn uses the publicy available Community API. Using this class, I've created a few Favorites that show me what's going on in MATLAB Central - without having to leave MATLAB 🙂
The class has a few convenient queries:
  • Results for the last 7 days
  • Results for the last 30 days
  • Results for the current month
  • Results for today
And supporting a bunch of different content scopes:
  • All MATLAB Central
  • MATLAB Answers
  • Blogs
  • Cody
  • Contests
  • File Exchange
  • Exclude Answers content
The results are displayed in the command window (which worked best for me) and link to each post. Here's what that looks like for this command
>> CommunityFeed.thisMonth("app designer", CommunityFeed.Scope.ExcludeAnswers)
Let me know if you find this class useful and feel free to suggest changes.
Hello,
I've looked around and I haven't found anything obvious about this, but is it possible to link to species/reactions, graphically, in a non-mass transfer sense? I have areas in my model where it would conceptually make sense to be able to see that species or reactions are linked, but if I link them in the standard way it demands that it be involved in the stoichiometry.
Perhaps some kind of dotted line, or similar?
Thank you, best regards,
Dan
we are planning to design a drive for an EV using synchronous reluctance motor. To move further we need some drive circuits for simulating and comparing various motors with synchronous reluctance to justify our literature survey. can we get som circuit suggestions?

I know the latest version of MATLAB R2023b has this feature already, put it should be added to R2023a as well because of its simplicity and convenience.
Basically, I want to make a bar graph that lets me name each column in a basic bar graph:
y=[100 99 100 200 200 300 500 800 1000];
x=["0-4" "5-17" "18-29" "30-39" "40-49" "50-64" "65-74" "75-84" "85+"];
bar(x,y)
However, in R2023a, this isn't a feature. I think it should be added because it helps to present data and ideas more clearly and professionally, which is the purpose of a graph to begin with.
I am running the code from the following URL: https://kr.mathworks.com/help/comm/ref/comm.ricianchannel-system-object.html. I copied and executed the example to visualize the channel's impulse response. However, when I run the same code multiple times with the same path gains and delays, I get different impulse response results each time. What could be the reason for this?
This behavior is unexpected because the code and settings are the same for each run, and the impulse response should remain constant.
This is the code.
fs = 3.84e6; % Sample rate in Hz
pathDelays = [0 200 800 1200 2300 3700]*1e-9; % in seconds
avgPathGains = [0 -0.9 -4.9 -8 -7.8 -23.9]; % dB
kfact = 10; % Rician K-factor
fD = 50; % Max Doppler shift in Hz
ricianChan = comm.RicianChannel( ...
SampleRate=fs, ...
PathDelays=pathDelays, ...
AveragePathGains=avgPathGains, ...
KFactor=kfact, ...
MaximumDopplerShift=fD, ....
Visualization='Impulse and frequency responses');
ricianChan(0.1);
The two images below show the results of running the same code.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with how I can simplify this part of my script, specifically scenario 1-3, so that it is easier to read. Perhaps with functions etc. (the comments are in swedish sorry heh. But the script works).

Recently, I came across a post about the JIT compiler on this Korean blog. In the post. The writer discussed the concept of the "Compile Threshold" and how it is calculated.
"The JVM accumulates the number of calls for each method called and compiles when the number exceeds a certain number. In other words, there is a standard for checking how often it is called and then deciding, 'It is time to compile.' This standard is called the compilation threshold. But what is this and why should it be used as a standard?"
The concept of the "Compile Threshold," as used above, seems to be more commonly associated with Tracing just-in-time compilation.
The writer used the simple Java code below to calculate the threshold.
for (int i = 0; i < 500; ++i) {
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
for (int j = 0; j < 1000; ++j) {
new Object();
}
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
System.out.printf("%d\t%d\n", i, endTime - startTime);
}
Since the MATLAB execution engine uses JIT compilation, I just wanted to perform the same experiment that the writer did.
I experimented using simple codes based on the code in the blog. I iterated a function 500 time using for-loop and calculated the execution time for each iteration using tic and toc. Then I plotted the execution time for each loop as blow. First five execution times are much higher than followings (10 times!) The test is very rough so I am not sure that I can conclude "MATLAB has Compile Threshold and it is 5!" but this value is actually correct ;-)
t0 = 0;
tfinal = 10;
y0 = [20;20];
timeToRun = zeros(500,1);
for i = 1:500
tStart = tic;
[preypeaks,predatorpeaks] = solvelotka(t0, tfinal, y0);
tEnd = toc(tStart);
timeToRun(i) = tEnd;
end
VS Code Extension for MATLAB was introduced back in April and has been downloaded 75K times since. Do people here use VS Code for writing MATLAB code?
Hi, I'm losing comms with thingspeak after exactly one hour. I'm on the free plan while I evaluate TS.
I am sending data once a minute. It works fine for one hour, and I get 200-OK responses. After exactly 1 hour, the response from TS is a 404-not found. I do a new DNS lookup, and get a new IP address for TS. Still no response. I do more DNS lookups, and get another different IP address. It cycles through 3 different IP addresses, but noe of them work one hour after bootup on my device.
I'm running an Arduino Nano with an Ethercard and the JNH library. I can still ping the arduino, serve webpages and ping a monitored device, and get NTP time, all in a 1 minute loop, so I doubt the TCP/IP stack has crashed.
after I restart the device, it works again for exactly one hour, and the I lose comms with Thingspeak again.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Adrian
In my struggle to get my SIM7600 connected to thingspeak using MQTT, i went to the basics: simple testing of my connection:
Protocol :tcp
Host : mqtt3.thingspeak.com
Port : 1883
Username : got it from my device (double checked !)
Password : got it from my device (double checked !)
When i try to connect I get the message Connection refused : bad user name or password.
I am completely lost. What basic stupi mistake am i missing. I thoroughly read the MQTT help pages.
Any help is appreciated.
Update :
When i select Dedicated connection and i also fill in the will message and will topic, i am able to update my channel. At least some progress.

Would it be a good thing to have implicit expansion enabled for cat(), horzcat(), vertcat()? There are often situations where I would like to be able to do things like this:
x=[10;20;30;40];
y=[11;12;13;14];
z=cat(3, 0,1,2);
C=[x,y,z]
with the result,
C(:,:,1) =
10 11 0
20 12 0
30 13 0
40 14 0
C(:,:,2) =
10 11 1
20 12 1
30 13 1
40 14 1
C(:,:,3) =
10 11 2
20 12 2
30 13 2
40 14 2
