Blank Plots and 'Caught unexpected exception of unknown type' error in R2014b

Hello Sir,

I'm Maha. I'm taking an online course on 'Introduction to Programming with MatLab' on Coursera. I've installed a licensed copy of Matlab R2014b given on the website. However, I'm unable to plot graphs in the program. It keeps on giving me error message 'Caught unexpected exception of unknown type'. I've no idea what's going wrong!

Your help, and guidance will be much appreciated. I'm very worried since I need to submit my homework.

Thank you, Maha

Hi Maha,

Does this happen with any plot in MATLAB, or only with particular examples? Is MATLAB itself crashing, or is is it just printing an error message to the Command Window? If the latter, is that the full text of the error message? Lastly, if you try to do a clean install, do you still see the same issue?

Thanks!

Hi, I have the same issue, using example from your video :

x = [0,1,1.5,2,3]; y = [1,0,0.25,1,4]; plot(x,y,'m:s');
