Matlab[setvar] - set a numerical array or matrix in an open MATLAB(R) session
|
|
Calling Sequence
|
|
setvar(X, Y, 'globalvar')
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
|
X
|
-
|
string naming the MATLAB variable
|
|
Y
|
-
|
MapleMatrix or MatlabMatrix
|
|
'globalvar'
|
-
|
optional parameter asserting that X is global
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
|
•
|
The setvar command sets the MATLAB variable X to the value of the matrix Y.
|
|
•
|
The variable Y can be a MapleMatrix or a MatlabMatrix. The effect of Matlab[setvar] is to assign X=Y in the MATLAB memory space.
|
|
•
|
If you specify the 'globalvar' option, then the variable X in the MATLAB session is flagged as a global variable. Use this option for running MATLAB functions that use global variables.
|
|
•
|
Executing the setvar command returns a null.
|
|
|
|
Examples
|
|
Initialize a matrix in Maple and copy it to the MATLAB environment.

The setvar command can also be used to assign another name to an existing matrix in the MATLAB environment. Notice that the second parameter is a string.
