The following code is a simplified version of my problem. Can anyone pointout why the loop is not terminating??
x=2;
y=2;
a=[x,y];
b=[10,10];
tf=isequal(a,b);
while tf==0
x=x+1;
y=y+1;
tf=isequal(a,b);
end
disp(a);

You never update the "a" vector inside the loop. It was built from the original values of x and y and never changes. To fix this:
while tf==0
x=x+1;
y=y+1;
a=[x,y]; % <-- add this line
tf=isequal(a,b);
end

Because floating point arithmetic with fractional values is in general not exact. See this article:

"But the same code is not working with decimal increments"
Because the accumulated floating point error means that those values are NOT the same. See the answers to your later question:
