Matlab Programming Contest
Love puzzles or want to sharpen your MATLAB skills? Christopher Felton highlights MathWorks' biannual MATLAB programming contest, a week-long set of clever algorithm challenges that require only base MATLAB. Whether you're experienced or new, you can compete, compare solutions, or simply study others' code when later phases disclose submissions. No toolboxes or mex files allowed, so it's a pure programming playground for learning and bragging rights.
Constrained Integer Behavior
Overflow and underflow are not always bugs, they can be useful in DSP when fixed-width integers wrap during processing. Christopher Felton demonstrates with moving-average (recursive-windowed-averager) and CIC filter examples how 2's complement wraparound in MyHDL's modbv cancels between an integrator and a comb via pole-zero cancellation. He also covers fixed-point resizing choices, saturation versus wrap, and how rounding error can accumulate.
