How to Clear MATLAB Windows

Hello everyone! I hope you all will be absolutely fine and having fun. Today, I am going to share my knowledge with all of you guys about How to Clear MATLAB Windows. If the command window and workspace window are not clear they present a very complicated look and hence the user feel it difficult to write code on command window. Here, I have compiled a list of awesome MATLAB Image Processing Projects so must check them out to get some inspiration. :) So, for the ease of the user we need to clear the both window specially the command window because it contains the entire code for any of the task. Before going into the details of this tutorial, you should go through Introduction to MATLAB and Declaration of Variables in MATLAB for the better understanding of this tutorial. If we want to avoid the complications while writing the code on command window we must need to clear the both command window as well as the workspace window. If you don't wanna work on Command Windows then you should have a look at How to Create m File in MATLAB.  Anyways, in today's tutorial we are gonna have a look at matlab clear command window and its quite easy but I must say its quite handy, especially when you are working on some complex MATLAB Project.. So, now let's get started with today's tutorial and have a look at How to Clear MATLAB Windows:

How to Clear MATLAB Windows ???

In the tutorial, Clearing MATLAB Windows I will show that which commands are required to use to clear the command window and workspace window In order to avoid the complications for the user while writing the source code on the command window.

• The commands for clearing the command window and workspace window are shown below.

1. clear all (used to clear the workspace window)
2. clc (used to clear the entire command window)

• The command window with some of the commands written on it is shown in the figure below.

• The workspace window having some of the variables is shown in the figure below.

Clearing both the Windows

• First of all I will show you that how to clear the workspace window.
• Go to the command window and write the command clear all and press
• All of the above steps are shown in the figure below.

• You will see that all the variables from the workspace window has been removed.
• The cleared workspace window is shown in the figure below.

• Now go to the command window and write the command clc on it.
• The command written on the command window is shown in the figure below.

• If you press Enter after writing the command show in the figure above, on the command, you will see that the command window has be cleared.
• The empty command window is shown in the figure below.

• So, by clearing both of these window a user can easily make an algorithm without any complication.
• You should also have a look at this video tutorial as well:

That is all from the tutorial, Clearing Command Window and Workspace in MATLAB. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. If you face any sort of problem in clear command window matlab, you can ask me in comments anytime without even feeling any kind of hesitation. I will try my level best to solve your issues in a better way, if possible. In my next tutorial I will explain you that how to Calculate the Values of the Trigonometric Functions in MATLAB. I will explore MATLAB further in my later tutorials and will share all of them with all of you as well. So, till then, Take Care :)

Introduction to MATLAB

Hello everyone! I hope you all will be absolutely fine and having fun. In this tutorial, I am going to give you a detailed Introduction to MATLAB. I will explain in detail, step by step procedure of using MATLAB for the first time. First of all, I would like to tell you a bit about the MATLAB software. MATLAB basically works on matrices and it is an excellent software for different kinds of simulation based projects as well as hardware based projects and specially, it is good for the Engineering Projects. MATLAB can be used for the manipulation purpose in order to obtain the proper results. It is very easy to use this software and most of the students prefer to use this software for their projects. So, this shows that MATLAB is a user friendly software as well. MATLAB has a very wide range of applications. It can also be used for the real time projects. Robotics, image processing and medical related projects are its major applications. You should also have a look at How to Create GUI in MATLAB. So, let's get started with Introduction to MATLAB:

Introduction to MATLAB

So, in the Introduction to MATLAB, I will show you the step by step procedure about how to use the MATLAB software for the first time.

• As you open the MATLAB software, a new window will be appeared on your screen.
• The window is shown in the figure below.

• The above window is the starting window which appears on the screen when you open the MATLAB.
• After sometime, you will be able to see another window on the screen.

• The second window is shown in the figure below.

Sections of MATLAB

There are six basic section of the MATLAB and understanding them is essential part of Introduction to MATLAB. The names of all of these sections are given below.

• Current Folder
• Command Window
• Workspace
• Command History
• View or Change Directory
• Help Section

Current Folder is the first section of the MATLAB’s front window at the left side of the window. It displays the files that has already been saved. You can open the files that are already saved somewhere in your PC or laptop.

• The current folder section is shown in the figure below.

Command Window is the second section and is used to show the results of the entire source code. If we want to observe the results on the command window, we must not put a semicolon after the statement then. If there is a semicolon at the end of the statement, result of that statement will not be shown on the command window.

• The command window section is shown in the figure below.

Workspace is the third section of the MATLAB’s front window which shows all the variables that are used while writing the complete algorithm.

• Workspace section is shown in the figure below.

Command History is the fourth and the last section of the MATLAB’s front window. It shows all of the commands that have been used in the entire algorithm.

• The command history section is shown in the figure below.

View or Change Directory helps us to view the directory or the complete destination of the file that is opened in the MATLAB. You can also open a new file by changing its directory.

• Directory box is shown in the figure below.

Help Section is also an amazing tool of the MATLAB. It provides help regarding of the command or any other thing related to MATLAB. By typing the thing which is not clear, you will be able to find a lot of help.

• The button to open the help section is shown in the figure below.

• As you press this button a new named as help will be appeared on your screen to help you.
• The help window is shown in the figure below.

• So that was the brief discussion about how to getting started with the MATLAB.

So, that is all from the tutorial Introduction to MATLAB. I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial. If you find any sort of problem in introduction to matlab, you can ask in comments anytime without even feeling any kind of hesitation. I will try my level best to solve your issues in a better way, if possible. In my next tutorial I will elaborate the Declaration of Variables in MATLAB and how to manipulate them without assigning them with the values. Moreover, you should also have a look at How to Create m file in MATLAB. I will further explore MATLAB in my later tutorials. So, till then, Take Care :)
