How to Convolve a Function in MATLAB

MATLAB is a programming language which allows developers to analyze and visualize mathematical data. MATLAB lets developers perform a series of operations such as, for example, convolution. Convolution, in algebra, is an operation that creates a function by combining two other mathematical functions. You can convolve functions in MATLAB by using a specific command.

Instructions
