Creating a simple GUI by using programming

I just finish a GUI assignment. I learn a lot from there. Most of my friends, using GUIDE's drag and drop method to do, but I think that is stupid. I mean, when you use GUIDE, do you really understand the programming created by it? GUIDE produces 2 files (M-File and FIG file) then link it together by complicated programming language. If you are like, a master or PHD student currently researching about that or you are the creator of MATLAB, ok, then fine. Bravo to you. But if you are a undergraduate like me, you really should try creating a GUI by programming. This is my paper, and you might consider reading the abstact before download my report and the GUI's M-file....

ABSTRACT

The assignment introduce a new function in Matlab which is Graphical User Interface (GUI). There are 2 way in creating a GUI i.e. using GUIDE or manual programming. GUIDE provides a drag and drop interface to the programmer to design the GUI layout while creating 2 file i.e. M-file and FIG file to stores both programming and layout. This Assignment, however, uses the another way of creating GUI, i.e. by plain (manual) programming. The difference between programming a GUIDE created program and manually program GUI is that a manually programming created GUI needs a position declaration in every layout button (character), which is not needed in GUIDE created M-file. This assignment shows the way to derive a 1D and 2D function from a summation equation, The same method can be use at a higher level or dimension. This GUI uses, static text, popup menu, panel, bush button and toggle button as user interface control.
