How can I get the symbolic steady state vector of a Markov Chain?
Easy, peasy. For example, given a simple Markov process, described by the 3x3 transition matrix T. T = [.5 .2 .3;.1 .4 .5;.1 .1...

I created an array of size 255 of pseudo-random integers . I want to access the value at a particular index of the array how can I do it ?
Basically, you need to look at the getting started tutorials. Try the MATLAB Onramp. r0 = uint8(randi(255,255,1)); r0(158)
