string
conversion to string
Calling Sequence
string(x) [out, in, text] = string(x)
Arguments
- x
a boolean, complex, real, integer, polynomial matrix, an implicit size, a library or a function.
Description
The string
function converts a matrix x
into a matrix of strings.
If x
is a function [out, in, text] = string(x)
returns three vectors of strings: out
is the vector of output variables, in
is the vector of
input variables, and text
is the (column) vector of the
source code of the function.
If x
is a lib
variable
(library), text
is a character string column vector. The first element
contains the path of library file and the other the name of functions it
defines.
Character strings are defined as 'string'
(between quotes) or "string"
(between doublequotes);
matrices of strings are defined as usual constant matrices.
Concatenation of strings is made by the +
operation.
For complex, real, integer, polynomial matrix
string
output is managed by format function (see examples).
Note that string([]) returns [].
Examples
string(rand(2, 2)) deff("y = mymacro(x)", "y = x + 1") [out, in, text] = string(mymacro) x = 123.356; disp("Result is " + string(x)); disp("/" + string(~%t) + "/"); disp("/" + string(%i+1) + "/"); disp("/" + string(int16(-123)) + "/"); disp("/" + string(1 + %s + %s^3) + "/"); string(corelib) v = format(); disp(string(%pi)) format(24); disp(string(%pi)) format(v(2)) string(1:4:$)
