MATLAB MATLAB Need help with integration and plotting

AI Thread Summary
To integrate the equation dy = (1/x)dx and plot y as a function of x in MATLAB, the user initially attempts to use symbolic integration with the commands syms y x, followed by LHS = int(1,y) and RHS = int(1/x,x). However, a suggestion is made to reformulate the equation to (1/y)dy = dx for easier integration. The key focus is on how to proceed with the integration and subsequently plot the results in MATLAB. The discussion emphasizes the need for clarity in the integration process and the correct formulation of the equation to achieve the desired plot of y against x.

Hi,
I have been trying to integrate an equation and then plot the result using MATLAB but haven't figured out how to do it. Say, I have an equation of the form dy = (1/x)dx. I want to integrate the above equation and then plot y as a function of x. So, to integrate I do this:

syms y x
LHS = int(1,y);
RHS = int(1/x,x);

So, now LHS and RHS contain the corresponding results of the integrals. How do I plot y as a function of x?

Thanks in advance.

It would be better if you could use the following equation instead of the one written above: (1/y)dy = dx. Now, how do I plot y as a function of x after integrating?
