Hi. I am trying to use this to plot.
if w_speed_p >= 1.6 && w_speed_p <= 3.4
beaufort = 2
end
if w_speed_p >= 3.5 && w_speed_p <= 5.4
beaufort = 3
end
subplot(3,1,3)
plot(w_speed_p, beaufort ,'v')
xlabel 'Predicted wind speed in the sea'
ylabel 'Beaufort Number'
set(gca,'ytick',0:10)
Can anyone explain what i am doing wrong please? This is my full code. Thanks in advance.

You need to understand the difference between && and &
&& applies to scalar, true && false
& applies to vector, [true true] & [false false]
[true true] && [false false] causes the error

Use logical indexing to get a vector of Beaufort numbers. Right now you're only generating a singe value; when a vector is passed to an if statement, i.e.
x = [0 1 2 3];
if x
% something
end
it is interpreted as
if all(x)
% something
end
What you want is:
beaufort(w_speed_p >= 1.6 & w_speed_p <= 3.4) = 2;
beaufort(w_speed_p > 3.4 & w_speed_p <= 5.4) = 3;
Also note I changed your Beaufort scales, since your values left a gap from 3.4 - 3.5.
