App that Calculates and Plots Data Based on Numerical
Input
This app shows how to use numeric edit fields to create a simple mortgage amortization
calculator. It includes the following components to collect user input, calculate monthly
payments, and plot the principal and interest amounts over time:
- Numeric edit fields — allow users to enter values for the loan amount, interest rate,
and loan period. MATLAB® automatically checks to make sure the values are numeric
and within the range specified by the app. A fourth numeric edit field displays the
resulting monthly payment amount based on the inputs. - Push button — executes a callback function to calculate the monthly payment value.
- Axes — used to plot the principal and interest amounts versus mortgage installment.
