Generates an error if the variable has not the required size.
errmsg = fmincon_checkdims ( funname , var , varname , ivar , matdims )
a 1 x 1 matrix of strings, the name of the calling function.
a 1 x 1 matrix of valid Scilab data type, the variable
a 1 x 1 matrix of string, the name of the variable
a 1 x 1 matrix of floating point integers, the index of the input argument in the calling sequence
1 x 2 matrix of floating point integers, the number of rows, columns for the variable #ivar
a 1 x 1 matrix of strings, the error message. If there was no error, the error message is the empty matrix.
This function is designed to be used to design functions where the input argument has a known shape. This function cannot be use when var is a function, or more generally, for any input argument for which the size function does not work.
// The function takes a 2 x 3 matrix of doubles. function y=myfunction(x) fmincon_checkdims ( "myfunction" , x , "x" , 1 , [2 3] ) y = x endfunction // Calling sequences which work y = myfunction ( ones(2,3) ) y = myfunction ( zeros(2,3) ) // Calling sequences which generate an error y = myfunction ( ones(1,3) ) y = myfunction ( zeros(2,4) ) | ![]() | ![]() |
