When I print a vector I get:

v =

1.0e+004 *

0 0.8149 1.3217 1.4438 1.4544


but is 1.0e+004 the same as 10000 or 1000 ?

1.0e+004 = 10000

>> isequal(1.0e+004,10000)

ans =

1

>> isequal(1.0e+004,1000)

ans =

0

'1.0e+004' means '1 by ten to the power of 4' which is 1 x 10,000, so it's 10,000.

Type for example

z = 1.0e+004

into the command window and it will return

z =
10000
