Type Identification¶
class¶
Syntax
class(x)
Description
Returns a string specifying the class or data type of input operand,
x. Output may include one of the following types: logical, char,
cell, struct, function_handle, intN, uintN, or double.
iscell¶
Syntax
iscell(x)
Description
Deterimines whether the input is a cell array. Returns the true
logical value whenever x is a cell array and otherwise returns the
false logical value.
isempty¶
Syntax
isempty(x)
Description
Determines whether the input is an empty array. Returns the logical
true value whenever x is an array that has at least one dimension
of size zero, and the false logical value otherwise.
isscalar¶
Syntax
isscalar(x)
Description
Determines whether the input is scalar. Returns the logical true value
whenever size(x)=[1 1], and the false logical value otherwise.
isvector¶
Syntax
isvector(x)
Description
Determines whether the input is a vector. Returns the true logical
value whenever size(x)=[1 n] or size(x)=[n 1] and n is a
non-negative integer, otherwise, it returns the false logical value.
ismember¶
Syntax
ismember(s,x)
Description
Determines if the string, s, exists within the cell array of
strings, x. For example, ismember('findMe', x) returns the
logical false value when x={'foo', 'bar', 'bash'} and the logical
true value when x={'foo', 'findMe', 'bash'}.
