Write a function that receives an input argument of a number of kilometers (km) and will output the conversions into both miles (mi) and US nautical miles (n.m.). Use the conversions: 1 km = 0.621 mi and 1 km = 0.540 n.m.

Show what you've done to try to solve this problem and ask a specific question about where you're stuck and you may receive some guidance.

Refer to https://www.mathworks.com/help/aerotbx/ug/convlength.html

Answer 2

[James Tursa]

1) Create a function file called myconversion.m in your working directory. E.g.,

edit myconversion.m

2) Put the following code into this file:

function [x_mi,x_nm] = myconversion(x_km)
% Insert your code here to convert x_km to x_mi
% Insert your code here to convert x_km to x_nm
return
end

Insert your code for the conversions into the places indicated. Also add comments to this file to state the purpose of the function, show the calling syntax, and explain what the inputs and outputs are.

Answer 3

[Christian Hernandez]

function [x_mi,x_nm] = myconversion(x_km)

% Insert your code here to convert x_km to x_mi

% Insert your code here to convert x_km to x_nm

return

end

[Walter Roberson]

It is not clear how this differs from James Tursa's guideance ?

Answer 4

[Najm]

function [x_mi,x_nm] = myconversion(x_km) % Insert your code here to convert x_km to x_mi % Insert your code here to convert x_km to x_nm return end

Answer 5

[Yasmin Eady]

function [miles, nmiles] = convert(k)
    
    km_to_miles = 0.621;
    km_to_nmiles = 1/1.852;

    miles = k * km_to_nmiles;
    nmiles = k *km_to_miles;

end

This is what I did. I want to know if this is right.

[Yasmin Eady]

I think this is for another problem but I wanted to know if this is the right approch.
