medium📝 Debug Q6 of 15
MATLAB - 2D Plotting
Identify the error in the following MATLAB code:
x = 1:5;
y = [2 4 6 8];
scatter(x, y)
Ascatter cannot plot numeric vectors
Bscatter function requires color argument
Cx must be a column vector
DVectors x and y have different lengths
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check vector lengths

    x has 5 elements, y has 4 elements, so lengths differ.
  2. Step 2: Understand scatter input requirements

    scatter requires x and y vectors to be the same length to plot points correctly.
  3. Final Answer:

    Vectors x and y have different lengths -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    Vector length mismatch causes error [OK]
Quick Trick: Ensure x and y vectors have equal length for scatter [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Ignoring vector length mismatch
  • Thinking color argument is mandatory
  • Assuming vector orientation matters
