I have a book with some good radar equations in it. However, everything is in Mathcad – I use Matlab. I’ve been converting everything I use from Mathcad to Matlab. I’ve run into one I’m not sure how to convert.

Mathcad has a function called root. The equation I’m interested in converting is:
root(f1(u) – sqrt(0.5), u, 0.3, 0.7

As I understand it, ‘root’ returns the value of u to make the function f1 equal to zero. With 0.3 and 0.7 being specified, root finds u on this interval.

How do I accomplish the same thing using Matlab?

Thanks,
