char - char function

Calling Sequence

y=char( x)
y=char(st1,st2,st3,....)

Parameters

Description

One input argument :

Given a cell of strings arrays x , this function returns a strings vector y in which the rows are the components of the strings cell

Given an array of ascii codes x, this function returns a strings array y corresponding into ascii codes. If dims ( x )=[n1,n2,n3,n4,....],then returned value have same size as input value instead of second dims, dims( y )=[n1,n3,n4,..]

More than one input argument :

Given strings arrays st1,st2,st3,... , this function returns a vector of strings in which the rows are the components of st1,st2,st3,... In the vector y the length of all strings sti is completed by blanks, to have the same length than the lengthmax of sti.//

Examples

//Example with a hypermatrix of ascii codes :
x=hypermat([4,2,3],61:84);
y=char(x)
size(x)
size(y)

//Example with more than one argument :
st1="zeros";
st2=["one","two"];
st3=["three"];
y=char(st1,st2,st3)
size(y)
//all strings rows are completed by 'blanks' to have the same length : 6
length(y)
