In MATLAB, the until keyword is used to create a loop that executes until the provided condition is true. Here is the basic syntax for using until:
while ~condition
% code to be executed
end
In this structure, the loop will execute as long as condition is false. Once condition becomes true, the loop will exit.
Here is an example that uses until to output the numbers from 1 to 10:
n = 1;
until n > 10
disp(n);
n = n + 1;
end
In this example, we use the disp function to output the value of n to the console, then increment n by 1 and repeat until n is greater than 10.
Another example that uses until to perform a computation until a condition is met:
x = 1;
y = 0;
until y > 100
y = y + x;
x = x + 1;
end
disp(x);
In this example, we initialize x to 1 and y to 0, then perform a computation to increment both variables until y is greater than 100. We then output the value of x.
