Hello, I connect to an external db. If the ping fails, I would like matlab to execute a certain code. so something in the form

ping(C)

if "invalid connection" then .... end

...

How can I do this in Matlab? Thanks

You could attempt to open the connection and if that fails execute a different piece of code. See the documentation:

try
   MATLAB commands     % Try block
catch ME
   MATLAB commands     % Catch block
end
