hi,
probably a stupid question but i can't seem to find the solution

suppose if i have
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function dydt = dydt2DOF(Time,Y)

xddot1=(-c*(Y(2)-Y(4))-k*(Y(1)-Y(3)))/m;
xddot2=(-c*(Y(4)-Y(2))-k*(Y(3)-Y(1))+kt*(road-Y(3)))/mw;

dydt = [Y(2);xddot1;Y(4);xddot2];
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and the main program

[time_hist1, state_hist1] = ode45(@dydt2DOF,Time,Y0);
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

my question is how many samples it compute ? ie the size of the data .. basically it has 2 columns (time hist and state hist) but i'm not sure how many rows there are as i need to use the number of  rows to do some calculation. Is there any command to determine the size ?

Thanks a lot

I don't know ... is there some way to compute the SIZE of a matrix in 
MATLAB?


If you're looking to determine the number of rows in time_hist1, use 
size(time_hist1, 1).
