Explode

Purpose

Extracts variables from a structure array.

Synopsis

explode(sdat,mod,txt,out)

options = explode('options')

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.
