Write a function that computes the equivalent resistance of a simple resistive c

Question

Write a function that computes the equivalent resistance of a simple resistive circuit consisting of only series-connected or parallel- connected resistors. You function should accept two inputs as follows: l. Avector of any length greater than or equal to 2that contains the resistance values of two or more resistors. 2. Asingle character variable that isequal to "S" to indicate a series connection or "P" to indicate a parallel connection. The function should output a single scalar that is the equivalent resistance of the circuit that is computed using the appropriate formula as described above. #FUNC, #CHAR Solution MATLAB Documentation 1 function EquivResistance student solution Res. 3 %Enter the code for your function here. You can char 4 sum (R) 5 end

Explanation / Answer

function [EquResistance] = student_solution(Resistance,TYPE)

SUM = 0;

%consider that user can enter S/s for series connection

if(TYPE == 'S' || TYPE == 's')

for i= 1 : length(Resistance)

SUM = SUM + Resistance(i);

end

EquResistance= SUM;

elseif (TYPE == 'P' || TYPE == 'p')

for i= 1 : length(Resistance)

SUM = SUM + 1/Resistance(i);

end

EquResistance = 1/SUM;

end

end
