Question

Write a script file that will compare entries in vector V to entries in vector M and determine how many entries in V are greater than the same entry in M, equal to the same entry in M, and less than the same entry in M. For example, V(1) is 7 and M(1) is 6, thus for this entry, V is greater than M.

V = [7 9 -8 9 3 -8 -5 1 10 10 0 -7]

M = [6 4 3 -2 3 -9 -1 3 7 -2 2 -9]

Answer 1

V = [7 9 -8 9 3 -8 -5 1 10 10 0 -7]
M = [6 4 3 -2 3 -9 -1 3 7 -2 2 -9]
increase_count = 0;
decrease_count = 0;
no_change_count = 0;
for i=1:length(V)
    if V(i) < M(i)
        increase_count = increase_count+1;
    elseif V(i) > M(i)
        decrease_count = decrease_count+1;
    else
        no_change_count = no_change_count+1;
    end
end
fprintf("Number of times entries in V are greater than the same entry in M is %d\n", increase_count)
fprintf("Number of times entries in V are smaller than the same entry in M is %d\n", decrease_count)
fprintf("Number of times entries in V are equal to the same entry in M is %d\n", no_change_count)
