How to call built in MuPAD functions from MATLAB command window

[CraigH]

Is anyone here any good with MATLAB? I could do with some help.

I want to use the ellipticF function as shown http://www.mathworks.co.uk/help/symbolic/mupad_ref/ellipticf.html. I just want to put in a number and it return another number (the answer).

I want it to work like the ellipke function:

[K,E]=ellipke(0.0796)

K =

1.6035


E =

1.5391

But the ellipticF isn't working like this.

It says I have to use the MuPAD Notebook Interface, but I don't know what this means. Apparently it is possible to call MuPad functions using the MATLAB command window, but I can't get it work.

If anyone here is good with MATLAB could you please post what I have to type into get this function to work?

Thank you!

You can use the MuPAD Notebook Interface by typing "open_mupad" into the MATLAB command window. This will open the MuPAD Notebook, which is a graphical interface for MuPAD commands. You can then type in the ellipticF function you want to use and it will return the answer. For example, if you wanted to calculate ellipticF(0.0796), you would type in the following: F(0.0796) If you want to use the same syntax as the ellipke function, you can use the following command: [F] = mupad('F', 0.0796)
