Here’s a signals and systems lab report where you can learn how to perform convolution in MATLAB. It’s pretty simple.

Below I have provided some codes, along with the output. Copy paste the code into your MATLAB editor file and press ‘run’ . The program should generate the picture given with each code.

Before you dive in, I highly recommend learning MATLAB commands in detail: MATLAB commands

n=0:1:m;

stem(n,c)
