I have a cell array. when I want create a cell array that its name is : '0691008752' in this case an error :"Invalid field name"
cellUsers.('0691008752') = ....
I know the reason for this error is that a number is called. But I do not know how I can set this name for the cell.
I agree with the comments above, prepending the field with a letter is the best solution for this problem..
One way to make this consistent is to use:
fname = matlab.lang.makeValidName('0691008752')
Its not widely known but you can have fields which begin with number - its bad practice and will almost certainly leads to bugs....
So how to do it, 1st you need to use mex, if you see the mathworks mex example and modify the appropriate line:
memcpy(fieldnames[0],"Doublestuff",sizeof("Doublestuff"));
to:
memcpy(fieldnames[0],"01234",sizeof("01234"));
After compiling and running you get:
Note: You can only access it through dynamic fields names. To update the field you must use mex.

I have large data sets which i want to work with in matlab.
I have a struct called Trail containing serveral structures called trail1, trail2 ...
which then contain several matrices. I now want to add another point to for instance trail1
I can do that with Trail.trail1.a2rotated(i,:) = rotpoint'; the problem is that i have to do it in a loop where the trail number as well as the a2rotated changes to e.g. a3rot...
I tired to do it like that
name ="trail"+num2str(z)+".a2rotated"+"("+i+",:)";
name = convertStringsToChars(name);
Trail.(name) = rotpoint'
But that gives me the error: Invalid field name: 'trail1.a2rotated(1,:)'.
Does someone have a solution?
The name in between brackets after the dot must be the name of a field of the struct. Other indexing operations must be done separately:
Trail.("trail"+z).a2rotated(i,:)
But you might be better off making trail(z) an array instead of separate fields with a number in the name.
MATLAB's methodsview tool is handy when exploring the API provided by external classes (Java, COM, etc.). Below is an example of how this function works:
myApp = actxserver('Excel.Application');
methodsview(myApp)
I want to keep the information in this window for future reference, by exporting it to a table, a cell array of strings, a .csv or another similar format, preferably without using external tools.
Some things I tried:
This window allows selecting one line at a time and doing "Ctrl+c Ctrl+v" on it, which results in a tab-separated text that looks like this:
Variant GetCustomListContents (handle, int32)
Such a strategy can work when there are only several methods, but not viable for (the usually-encountered) long lists.
I could not find a way to access the table data via the figure handle (w/o using external tools like findjobj or uiinspect), as findall(0,'Type','Figure') "do not see" the methodsview window/figure at all.
My MATLAB version is R2015a.
Fortunately, methodsview.m file is accessible and allows to get some insight on how the function works. Inside is the following comment:
%// Internal use only: option is optional and if present and equal to
%// 'noUI' this function returns methods information without displaying
%// the table. `
After some trial and error, I saw that the following works:
[titles,data] = methodsview(myApp,'noui');
... and returns two arrays of type java.lang.String[][].
From there I found a couple of ways to present the data in a meaningful way:
Table:
dataTable = cell2table(cell(data));
dataTable.Properties.VariableNames = matlab.lang.makeValidName(cell(titles));
Cell array:
dataCell = [cell(titles).'; cell(data)];
Important note: In the table case, the "Return Type" column title gets renamed to ReturnType, since table titles have to be valid MATLAB identifiers, as mentioned in the docs.
I need to categorize a dataset according to different age groups. The categorization depends on whether the Sex is Male or Female. I first subset the data by gender and then use the ordinal function (dataset is from a Matlab example). The following code crashes on the last line when I try to vertically concatenate the subsets:
load hospital;
subset_m=hospital(hospital.Sex=='Male',:);
subset_f=hospital(hospital.Sex=='Female',:);
edges_f=[0 20 max(subset_f.Age)];
edges_m=[0 30 max(subset_m.Age)];
labels_m = {'0-19','20+'};
labels_f = {'0-29','30+'};
subset_m.AgeGroup= ordinal(subset_m.Age,labels_m,[],edges_m);
subset_f.AgeGroup = ordinal(subset_f.Age,labels_f,[],edges_f);
vertcat(subset_m,subset_f);
Error using dataset/vertcat (line 76)
Could not concatenate the dataset variable 'AgeGroup' using VERTCAT.
Caused by:
Error using ordinal/vertcat (line 36)
Ordinal levels and their ordering must be identical.
Edit
It seems that a vital part was missing in the question, here is the answer to the corrected question. You need to use join rather than vertcat, for example:
joinFull = join(subset_f,subset_m,'LeftKeys','LastName','RightKeys','LastName','type','rightouter','mergekeys',true)
Solution of original problem
It seems like you are actually trying to work with the wrong variable. If I change all instances of hospitalCopy into hospital then everything works fine for me.
Perhaps you copied hospital and edited it, thus losing the validity of the input.
If you really need to have hospitalCopy make sure to assign to it directly after load hospital.
If this does not help, try using clear all before running the code and make sure there is no file called 'hospital' in your current directory.
I currently have this code to load a set of prompts to assign the appropriate data:
full=xlsread(input('File Name for Full data?\n'),input('Sheet Name for full?\n'));
empty=xlsread(input('File Name for Empty data?\n'),input('Sheet Name for empty?\n'));
xx1=full(:,1);
yy1=full(:,2);
ff1=full(:,3);
xx2=empty(:,1);
yy2=empty(:,2);
ff2=empty(:,3);
However, since the full and empty sheets are both in one spreadsheet, I would like to make it so that there is only one prompt for the file and then a prompt for each sheet, so something like:
everything=xlsread(input('File Name for Full data?\n'),input('Sheet Name for full?\n'),input('Sheet Name for empty?\n');
xx1=everything(:,1);
yy1=everything(:,2);
ff1=everything(:,3);
xx2=everything(:,4);
yy2=everything(:,5);
ff2=everything(:,6);
What can I do to make this work out?
Just make the input calls before you use xlsread
filename = input('File Name for Full data?\n')
full = input('Sheet Name for full?\n')
empty = input('Sheet Name for empty?\n')
full=xlsread(filename, full);
empty=xlsread(filename, empty);
xx1=full(:,1);
yy1=full(:,2);
ff1=full(:,3);
xx2=empty(:,1);
yy2=empty(:,2);
ff2=empty(:,3);
Though xlsread does not support this directly, you can create a wrapper that will call xlsread in the right way.
Basically just ask the input arguments that you need, and based on them make a call to xlsread.
It is indeed a weakness that you cannot read multiple sheets simultaneously, but xlsread is just a very basic command. Personally I think it is a greater weakness that you can only read out contiguous ranges.
I'm using a plugin and want to perform an action based on the records statuscode value. I've seen online that you can use entity.FormattedValues["statuscode"] to get values from option sets but when try it I get an error saying "The given key was not present in the dictionary".
I know this can happen when the plugin cant find the change for the field you're looking for, but i've already checked that this does exist using entity.Contains("statuscode") and it passes by that fine but still hits this error.
Can anyone help me figure out why its failing?
Thanks
I've not seen the entity.FormattedValues before.
I usually use the entity.Attributes, e.g. entity.Attributes["statuscode"].
MSDN
Edit
Crm wraps many of the values in objects which hold additional information, in this case statuscode uses the OptionSetValue, so to get the value you need to:
((OptionSetValue)entity.Attributes["statuscode"]).Value
This will return a number, as this is the underlying value in Crm.
If you open up the customisation options in Crm, you will usually (some system fields are locked down) be able to see the label and value for each option.
If you need the label, you could either do some hardcoding based on the information in Crm.
Or you could retrieve it from the metadata services as described here.
To avoid your error, you need to check the collection you wish to use (rather than the Attributes collection):
if (entity.FormattedValues.Contains("statuscode")){
var myStatusCode = entity.FormattedValues["statuscode"];
}
However although the SDK fails to confirm this, I suspect that FormattedValues are only ever present for numeric or currency attributes. (Part-speculation on my part though).
entity.FormattedValues work only for string display value.
For example you have an optionset with display names as 1, 2, 3,
The above statement do not recognize these values because those are integers. If You have seen the exact defintion of formatted values in the below link
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/library/microsoft.xrm.sdk.formattedvaluecollection.aspx
you will find this statement is valid for only string display values. If you try to use this statement with Integer values it will throw key not found in dictionary exception.
So try to avoid this statement for retrieving integer display name optionset in your code.
Try this
string Title = (bool)entity.Attributes.Contains("title") ? entity.FormattedValues["title"].ToString() : "";
When you are talking about Option set, you have value and label. What this will give you is the label. '?' will make sure that the null value is never passed.
