These blocks are arranged in block libraries which are accessed in the simulink library browser window shown below each icon in the main simulink window can be double clicked to bring up the corresponding block library. In the block icon, this port is marked with a minus sign. If either end of the line is within five pixels of a corresponding port, the function connects the line to it. Why some of the blocks in matlab, simulink, simscape are blue. I could do it with reciprocalsqrt block and sum block but too complicated, there must be some easier way of doing the reciprocal.

The difference block computes the difference between adjacent elements in rows, columns, or a specified dimension of the input array u. A manual variant source block can have two or more input ports and has one output port. Simulink is an extension to matlab which uses a icondriven interface for the construction of a block diagram representation of a process. It can also collapse the elements of a single input vector.
