Explode

Purpose

Extracts variables from a structure array.

Synopsis

explode(sdat,mod,txt,out)

Description

EXPLODE writes the fields of the input structure sdat to variables in the workspace with the same variable names as the field names. If sdat is a standard model structure, only selected information is written to the workspace.

Optional string input txt appends a string to the variable output names.

Options

options = a structure array with the following fields:

• model: [ 'no' | {'yes'} ] interpret sdat as model if possible, and
• display: [ 'off' | {'on'} ]} display model information.

The default options can be retreived using: options = explode('options');.

Examples

For the structure array x

>> x.field1 = 2;
>> x.field2 = 3;
>> explode(x)

Input (sdat) is not a recognized model. Exploding as regular structure

>> whos

  Name         Size                   Bytes  Class

  field1       1x1                        8  double array
  field2       1x1                        8  double array
  x            1x1                      264  struct array

the variables field1 and field2 have been written to the base workspace.
