uint - Create MATLAB structure describing unsigned integer data type

Syntax

a = uint(TotalBits)

Description

uint(TotalBits) returns a MATLAB structure that describes the data type of an unsigned integer with a word size given by TotalBits.

uint is automatically called when an unsigned integer is specified in a block dialog box.

The default binary point for this data type is assumed to lie to the right of all bits.

Examples

Define a 16-bit unsigned integer:

a = uint(16)
a = 
       Class: 'INT'
    IsSigned: 0
    MantBits: 16
