Dear Ajain,

One way is to convert matlab code to C is study the existing code i.e matlab code and find out the similar functions in C. And if for some functions you dont found the similar function then write your own function which will provide you the same functionality as matlab functions.

Dear Laxmikant_Yadav,

Thanks a lot for your answer. I am less experienced in both languages, my actaual requriement is to plot some code structre diagram using some third
party tools for matlab code analysis. Matlab codes are less compactable to all these tools but C codes are very much compactable
that is why I want to convert the code from matlab to C Code. I am bit bit disappointed as well, I have to follow according as you say :)

Hi there are things called Mex files which you can use C code in. Format is as follows.

http://www.mathworks.co.uk/support/tech-notes/1600/1622.html[^]

they also do a product which will convert your matlab code directly in C.

http://www.mathworks.co.uk/company/pressroom/MathWorks-Introduces-Automatic-C-Code-Generation-Directly-from-MATLAB-Language.html[^]

However i do not know of you budget or how good this product is. Your best bet as Laxmikant_Yadav says is to write the code in C and then use the Mex file to allow you existing code to use the C functions within matlab.

In fact this might be the best way as you can improve the mex files as your knowledge increases....

happy coding.
