title: Finding eccentricity of plotted ellipse in matlab
body: <p>I am new to matlab, so this might be a trivial question. But I couldn't find any help googling, regarding this. I have a set of points, and from that I have found a minimum bounding ellipse, enclosing those points. The function returns the center of the ellipse, and a matrix A (in center form). I need to find eccentricity of the ellipse, along with properties like semi-axes lengths of the same ellipse.</p>
  
  <p>And some pointers as to what exactly A contains, is also appreciated.
  Thanks a lot.</p>
