Upon compiling the code above, a plot with a tiny peak at about Y=19.73 will be displayed. If one would use the Data Cursor and trace along the plot, it can be seen that the Y values do not change accordingly as X increases. This is clearly not true, since you can tell from the Workspace of my AA array that it's increasing (albeit slowly). Does anyone know what the issue is? Is it a numerical resolution issue with Matlab?
Thank you in advance.

The default data cursor display function only displays 4 digits.
Right click on the datatip display and choose "Edit text update function". In the three num2str() calls, change the 4 to something larger -- 6 or 7 perhaps. Click on the "save and close" at the bottom. Choose a location and allow it to be saved. Now notice that the number of digits has increased on the data cursor.
Suppose you saved as NewCallback.m . Then to make it active by program control,
dcm = datacursormode();
set(dcm, 'UpdateFcn', @NewCallback);
