MATLAB Programming Question

Create an M-file (script) that prompts the user to enter a value of x and then calculates the value of sin (x).

This is my script:

x=input('enter value of x in radians');

y=sin(x);

And I get the error message,

Warning: Function sin has the same name as a MATLAB builtin. We suggest you rename the function to
avoid a potential name conflict.

How would I fix this?

Answer 1

You saved the file as sin.m

As sin is build-in function we should not use it as file name.

So, remove the file names sin.m

Then create a new file named my_sin.m
Then copy below code

x=input('enter value of x in radians');
y=sin(x)

And then run the my_sin.m file
