Steps to submit this assignment (clear, ready-to-
follow)
1. Run the MATLAB scripts:
Open MATLAB, run Q1_matlab.m, Q2_matlab.m, Q3_matlab.m.
Verify the plots look correct and save each figure as a high-resolution PNG or PDF:
saveas(gcf,'Q1_solution_plot.png'), etc.
2. Create a report (single PDF):
Use the LaTeX file assignment04.tex as a start for the cover/header and question text.
Insert each plot into the LaTeX file
using \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{Q1_solution_plot.png} under the
relevant question.
Add short explanations:
, For Q1: describe the ODE → first-order system → ode45 with tolerances.
For Q2: explain piecewise construction and tick/colour choices.
For Q3: include the analytic intersection points and a short verification note.
For Q4: attach the .tex as an appendix if required.
Compile with pdflatex assignment04.tex to produce a single assignment04.pdf.
3. Code appendix:
Save the MATLAB .m files and the LaTeX .tex file in a folder.
Optionally zip them (assignment04_code_and_tex.zip) so markers can re-run code.
4. Filename and metadata:
Name your PDF clearly, e.g. APM2616_Assignment04_TThavhanyedza_25822.pdf (use
your student number and full name).
Inside the PDF (cover page) include:
Your name, student number, module code, assignment number, date, academic year,
and contact email.
5. Final checks before upload:
Open the final PDF to confirm all figures appear and fonts are embedded.
Ensure figure captions and labels are readable.
Make sure the analytic answers are present (the four intersection points for Q3).
Confirm file size is under any portal limits (if not, reduce image resolution slightly).
6. Upload:
Log into the assignment submission portal (Moodle / Blackboard / submission system).
Go to the correct assignment link and upload:
Primary file: APM2616_Assignment04_YourName_StudentNo.pdf.
If required, attach assignment04_code_and_tex.zip containing your .m and .tex files.
Add a short comment in the submission box summarising what you uploaded (plots,
code, LaTeX).
7. Confirmation:
After upload, download the submitted file to double-check it uploaded correctly.
Take a screenshot of the submission confirmation and keep it until marking is complete.
8. Optional: Email the marker (if required) with the same attachments and your student ID,
noting the portal submission time.
