# strips

## Syntax

strips(x)
strips(x,n)
strips(x,sd,fs)
strips(x,sd,fs,scale)

## Description

strips(x) plots vector x in horizontal strips of length 250. If x is a matrix, strips(x) plots each column of x. The left-most column (column 1) is the top horizontal strip.

strips(x,n) plots vector x in strips that are each n samples long.

strips(x,sd,fs) plots vector x in strips of duration sd seconds, given a sampling frequency of fs samples per second.

strips(x,sd,fs,scale) scales the vertical axes.

If x is a matrix, strips(x,n), strips(x,sd,fs), and strips(x,sd,fs,scale) plot the different columns of x on the same strip plot.

strips ignores the imaginary part of complex-valued x.

## Examples

collapse all

Plot two seconds of a frequency-modulated sinusoid in 0.25 second strips. Specify a sample rate of 1 kHz.

fs = 1000;
t = 0:1/fs:2;
x = vco(sin(2*pi*t),[10 490],fs);

strips(x,0.25,fs)

Load a speech signal sampled at ${F}_{s}=7418\phantom{\rule{0.2777777777777778em}{0ex}}Hz$. The file contains a recording of a female voice saying the word "MATLAB®."

Plot the signal in 0.18 second long strips.
