MATLAB Programming

4 M-File Programming
% Display the value of a specific argument.
disp(' ')
disp(sprintf('\nThe maximum height is %d.', p.Results.maxHeight))
% Display all arguments.
disp(' ')
disp 'List of all arguments:'
disp(p.Results)
Now save and execute the M-file, passing the required script argument, the
optional format argument, as well as several parameter-value arguments.
MATLAB assigns those values you pass in the argument list to the
appropriate fields of the Results structure:
publish_ip('ipscript.m', 'ppt', 'outputDir', ...
'C:/matlab/test', 'maxWidth', 500, 'maxHeight', 300);
The maximum height is 300.
List of all arguments:
format: 'ppt'
maxHeight: 300
maxWidth: 500
outputDir: 'C:/matlab/test'
script: 'ipscript.m'
Packaging Arguments in a Structure
By setting the StructExpand property of the inputParser object to true, you
can pass arguments to your function in the form of a structure instead of
individually in the argument list. This property must be set prior to calling
the parse method.
StructExpand defaults to the true state, so you don’t have to make any
changes to your test program to run this example.
Put all of the input arguments into a structure:
s.format = 'xml';
s.outputDir = 'C:/matlab/test';
