how to make Matrix

Hi I have a problem Creating a function A, which reads a matrix A and prints the following

information on the screen: where the number of rows and columns in A will appear, the element of

row 2 column 1.

Your statement is quite confusing. Can you show an example?

You can use the 'size' function to get the dimensions of the matrix and the 'fprintf' function to display the results.

MATLAB has indexing beginning from 1 instead of 0. The matrix elements can be accessed using two parameters

1. Row Number
2. Column Number

So, A(2, 1) will return the element at row 2, column 1

Please refer to the following code:

% script_name.m

A = [1 2 3 4; 5 6 7 8; 9 10 11 12];

showInfo(A);

function showInfo(A)

[row, col] = size(A);

fprintf('Number of rows: %d\n', row);

fprintf('Number of columns: %d\n', col);

fprintf('Element at (2, 1): %d\n', A(2, 1));

end
