Hi, I have a code like
function [ TT] = Base( )
D1=input('Duct1 dia=');
D2=input('Duct2 dia=');
a=input('extend length(a)=');
b=input('extend length(b)=');
s1=pi*D1^2/4;
s2=pi*D2^2/4;
c=340;
q=1.293;
freq=linspace(1,6486,1082);
K=2*pi*freq/340;
Z22=1i*(q*c/s2)*cot(K*a);
Z21=-1i*(q*c/s2)*cot(K*b);
T=zeros(4,6486);
n=1;
A=zeros(1,1082);
B=zeros(1,1082);
C=zeros(1,1082);
D=zeros(1,1082);
E=zeros(1,1082);
F=zeros(1,1082);
G=zeros(1,1082);
H=zeros(1,1082);
for ii=1:1:1082
A(n)=T(1,4*n)+Z21(n)*T(1,4*n-1);
B(n)=T(3,4*n-3)+Z22(n)*T(4,4*n-3);
C(n)=T(3,4*n-2)+Z22(n)*T(4,4*n-2);
D(n)=T(2,4*n)+Z21(n)*T(2,4*n-3);
E(n)=((T(4,4*n)+T(4,4*n-1)*Z21(n))*Z22(n))-(T(3,4*n)+T(3,4*n-1)*Z21(n));
TT(:,2*n-1:2*n)=[T(1,4*n-3)+A(n)*B(n)/E(n),T(1,4*n-2)+A(n)*C(n)/E(n);T(2,4*n-3)+D(n)*B(n)/E(n),T(2,4*n)+D(n)*C(n)/E(n)];
n=n+1;
end
end
but in command window the ans is a NaN matrix, SO how can I solve this? If any body could please suggest me if possible, Thanks

When you compute TT you are dividing zero by zero at four places where you divide by E(n), hence the NaN. This is because with T all zero, A(n), B(n), C(n), D(n), and E(n) are always all zero. Are you sure you have initialized T properly?
Also why haven't you used n as the index in your for-loop rather than ii?
