Great. Thank you Jos.
Is it possible to prevent the appearance of figure tab in the task bar?
I'm calling your function in a loop every second, and it works well, but there is continuous blinking between command window and windows task bar as your code opens and closes a figure window each time. I tried to off the 'visible' property of the figure, but it was not working...

I agree with John; this should be part of standard matlab. Well documented, short & simple, vectorized and ample documentation & comments; excelent.

This works well. I agree with Jeremy that recursive concatenation would be an advantage. It would also be useful to concatenate arrays and cells at the leaf nodes in the case when the fieldnames match (I've had to do this many times).

But it works for what I'm doing at the moment. Thanks!

Works great!

Works as advertised - many thanks!

Great! This is exactly what I wanted. For network analysis of Quadratic Assignment Procedure (QAP), this step is pre-required.

Very useful - but i'd need to add a legend with entries for the vertical bars. EG i have a histogram, and two vertical bars, say one for the mean and one for the median. How can i do this?

Hello everyone,

this code is exactly what I need. Unfortunately I need it in three dimensions. Does any body have an idea?

Otherwise I will try to extend this m-file but I have a feeling that this will take me lots of time

thanks

Philipp

great work, may the sun always shine on you.

@Luigi: To be honest, I suggest that you use SORT in all cases ... the gain in using KTHVALUE is small. And it is not so much the value of K that determines its running time. This submission is to be regarded as a programming exercise.

Great tool. But you cannot just pass [] into unique as second argument. I modified it for my own use, but I'd encourage the original author to update it instead of having me posting a minor modification of your work. :)

Great Program. It'd be even better if it can accept an axes handle as its first input. For the moment, since I need it in a hurry, I tapped into your code and changed this:

function hh = gridxy(hca, x,varargin)

if(isempty(hca))
hca=get(get(0,'currentfigure'),'currentaxes')
end

Simple to use and understand. Thanks for the code and helpful documentation.

Sorry, I forgot to point out what I feel to be one of the best features of this code - the copious internal comments that explain how it works.

I've often argued that the best MATLAB code should aim for a 1-1 ratio of comments to lines of code. That is, each line of code should have an associated comment line, at least in those places where the code is doing something tricky. This code goes beyond my aim. People interested in how to write good comments should look at what the author did here and learn from it.

An update that resolves a bug in forward shifts has been submitted. Please wait for version 2.0.

Efficient, well written, clean code. Excellent help, examples. Appropriate error checks. It offers either form of circulant matrix, with the proper choice of default.

Nice work, just one comment:
I just noticed that when merging two structures, the fact that any dissimilar fields in the FIRST level are merged, but dissimilarities in subsequent levels are lost: e.g.

s1.a = 1;
s1.b = 2;

s2.a = 101;

s3 = catstruct(s1,s2) gives s3.a = 101, s3.b = 2.
But

s1.A.a = 1;
s1.A.b = 2;

s2.A.a = 101;

gives s3.A = a : 101.
i.e. we lose field b. I kind of understand the logic, i.e. that it is now field A that is being overwritten by a new field A, so that a depth=1 merge has occurred, but for anyone looking to do a true merge-style operation, this means needing to loop though each level... any plans to change this?

It was very useful to me. Thanks Jos

While loop is a wait for a keypress and I have two ways: if the selection is y=yes then break, if the selection is n=no then break. It is a double possible input equal at the same output (break); 2=1. This is the while loop. There is other. If my input is been “y” then isyes=1 and if is been “n” then isyes=0; I write yes and it is yes, I write no and it is no, in both cases break to quit wait-loop. Conclusion: yes=yes and no=no with yes=no because there is break. One (yes=yes) and one (no=no) with one=one (yes=no) because there is break. This is half simulation of the mechanic instant (the inanimated instant, possible because exist users): break is the half, the stopper, the reference of the half-instant and I can choose the positive or I can choose the negative; in the first case is a positive instant (in the half) and in the second case is a negative instant (in the half).
I’m writing the program with my style and with addition of the other half instant:
yn=input(‘to select y=yes or n=no ...’); --> break, yes or no to go forward
if yn==’y’,
y=1; --> first case
n=0; --> there isn’t in the program
elseif yn==’n’,
y=0; --> second case
n=1; --> there isn’t in the program
end
Can you help me to understand the meaning of your function?
I’m searching the utility of the program. What is the utility of half instant?
I’ve an idea but I would listen to you.
Regards

easy things are always the best! Great!
