Programming Constructs

Matlab is a language, not just a calculator. It has the usual programming constructs. Both if and while understand all the usual boolean operations (though note that ~ rather than ! is used for negation - see table 4).

`==`	equal
`~=`	not equal
`>`	greater than
`>=`	greater than or equal
`<`	less than
`<=`	less than or equal
`&`	logical AND
`\|`	logical OR
`~`	logical NOT

if
while
for
switch
