Nested Functions in MATLAB

This example shows how to use nested functions to avoid making copies of large arrays in MATLAB.

Description

twoFigs.m is an example M-file to accompany the article "Nested Functions in MATLAB" in the January 2006 issue of The MathWorks News & Notes.

twoFigs.m is an example 2-figure GUI that uses nested functions to manage the data and state. Since the data is an image, it could be large and this example shows you how to use nested functions to avoid unnecessary copies of such data. Try it with this example:

% Substitute mandrill with
% any indexed image here
load mandrill
rgb = ind2rgb(X,map);
twoFigs(rgb)

• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7 (R14)
