In our model of a physical system, we modify one flux value by a factor from a look-up table. The LUT itself is selected from a catalog of LUTs based on an integer index. We're currently loading the table data into CombiTable2D components. What is the correct way to select/define the correct LUT? If we have them all as named tables in one input data file, is there a way to pick an LUT based on it's tableName (the CombiTable parameter)? I've been playing with For loops in either equation or algorithm formats, but haven't found a syntax that works yet.
Thanks in advance for the thoughts...
I think it only works with one table per file so you can have an array of tables, something like:
parameter Integer N = 3;
parameter String selectTable = "tab2";
Modelica.Blocks.Tables.CombiTable2D tableArray[N](
each tableOnFile = true,
fileName = {"file1", "file2", "file3"},
tableName={"tab1", "tab2", "tab3"});
// use the tableArray
for i in 1:N loop
// note that N and selectTable need to be known at compile
// time so that the if and the for loop can be expanded
if (tableArray[i].tableName == selectTable)
then
connect(tableArray[i].u1, u1);
connect(tableArray[i].u2, u2);
connect(tableArray[i].y, y);
endif;
end for;

I have two programs. one is reading some data from UR5 robot while the other is reading data from a sensor. I need to collect these data into a table as I carry out some industrial task.
I was able to generate table for each program when they were separate but I need to create one MAIN program which calls the functions and is to combine these tables together. Now I only get one line of what I need. Here is my Main program below:
idleForces = Thesis_calibration();
Time_Stamp = [];
while (true)
timestring = datestr(now,'HH:MM:SS.FFF');
[~,~,~,hours,minutes,seconds] = datevec(timestring);
time_ms = 1000*(3600*hours + 60*minutes + seconds);
measuredForces = Thesis_acquisition();
ur5Data = UR5_CLIENT_new();
Forces = minus(measuredForces,idleForces);
Row = table(time_ms,ur5Data);
Force = table(Forces);
writetable(Row,'robotdata.csv','Delimiter',',')
pause(0.01);
end
The output is found in this picture. How can I make it to store line by line?
DATA WRITTEN TO THE CSV FILE
Instead of writetable use dlmwrite and just enter your data as a matrix. Important bit is the '-append' or it will just overwrite column 1 the same as with writetable.
newRow = [time_ms,ur5Data];
dlmwrite('robotdata.csv',newRow,'-append');
The default delimiter is ',' so you don't need to worry about that. Though you can set the delimiter in the dlmwrite function if you choose.
I have an excel file and I need to read it based on string values in the 4th column. I have written the following but it does not work properly:
[num,txt,raw] = xlsread('Coordinates','Centerville');
zn={};
ctr=0;
for i = 3:size(raw,1)
tf = strcmp(char(raw{i,4}),char(raw{i-1,4}));
if tf == 0
ctr = ctr+1;
end
zn{ctr}=raw{i,4};
end
data=zeros(1,10); % 10 corresponds to the number of columns I want to read (herein, columns 'J' to 'S')
ctr=0;
for j = 1:length(zn)
for i=3:size(raw,1)
tf=strcmp(char(raw{i,4}),char(zn{j}));
if tf==1
ctr=ctr+1;
data(ctr,:,j)=num(i-2,10:19);
end
end
end
It gives me a "15129x10x22 double" thing and when I try to open it I get the message "Cannot display summaries of variables with more than 524288 elements". It might be obvious but what I am trying to get as the output is 'N = length(zn)' number of matrices which represent the data for different strings in the 4th column (so I probably need a struct; I just don't know how to make it work). Any ideas on how I could fix this? Thanks!
Did not test it, but this should help you get going:
EDIT: corrected wrong indexing into raw vector. Also, depending on the format you might want to restrict also the rows of the raw matrix. From your question, I assume something like selector = raw(3:end,4); and data = raw(3:end,10:19); should be correct.
[~,~,raw] = xlsread('Coordinates','Centerville');
selector = raw(:,4);
data = raw(:,10:19);
[selector,~,grpidx] = unique(selector);
nGrp = numel(selector);
out = cell(nGrp,1);
for i=1:nGrp
idx = grpidx==i;
out{i} = cell2mat(data(idx,:));
end
out is the output variable. The key here is the variable grpidx that is an output of the unique function and allows you to trace back the unique values to their position in the original vector. Note that unique as I used it may change the order of the string values. If that is an issue for you, use the setOrderparameter of the unique function and set it to 'stable'
I have a loop which runs 100 times. In each iteration there is a string, double and a table assigned, and in the next iteration new values are assigned for them. What I want to do is to accumulate these values and after the loop finishes save the total result as result.mat using the matlab save function. I've tried putting them in cell-array but its not working so far, so if anyone could please advise how this can be done.
This is what I did:
results_cell=(100,3);
.
.
.
results_cell(i,1)=stringA;
results_cell(i,2)=TableA;
results_cell(i,3)=DoubleA;
But it gives this error Coversion to Cell from Table is not possible. So I've tried converting TableA to array of Doubles using table2array but I still get this Coversion to Cell from Double is not possible
I think using a structure would be a good way to store your data, since they are of different types and you can assign it meaningful field names for easy reference.
For example, let's call the structure Results. You can initialize it like so.
Results = struct('StringData',[],'TableData',[],'DoubleData',[])
Since you know its dimensions, you can even do this:
N = 100;
Results(N).StringData = [];
Results(N).TableData = [];
Results(N).DoubleData = [];
This automatically create a 1xN structure with 3 fields.
Then in your loop you can assign each field with its associated data like so:
for k = 1:N
Results(k).StringData = String(k);
Results(k).TableData = Table(k);
Results(k).DoubleData = Double(k);
end
where String(k), Table(k) and Double(k) are just generic names for your actual data.
When you're done with the loop you can access any type of data using a single index and the right field name.
In order to save a .mat file, use something like this:
save SomeFileName.mat Results
Which you can load into the workspace as you would with any .mat file:
Eg:
S = load('SomeFileName.mat')
R = S.Results
Hope that helps!
Is it possible to refer back to/access the names of variables (say nx1 arrays) that make up a matrix? I wish to access them to insert there names into a plot or figure (as a text) that I have created. Here is an example:
A = [supdamp, clgvlv,redamp,extfanstat,htgvlv,occupied,supfanspd]
%lots of code here but not changing A, just using A(:,:)'s
%drawn figure
text(1,1,'supdamp')
...
text(1,n,'supfanspd')
I have failed in an attempt create a string named a with their names in so that I could loop through a(i,1), then use something like text(1,n,'a(i,1)')
Depending on your problem, it might make sense to use structures with dynamical field names.
Especially if your data in the array have some meaning other than just entries of a matrix in linear algebra sense.
# name your variables so that your grandma could understand what they store
A.('supdamp') = supdamp
A.('clgvlv') = clgvlv
...
fieldsOfA = fieldnames(a)
for n = 1 : numel(fieldsOfA )
text(1, n, fieldsOfA{n})
end
I have the following example which expresses the type of problem that I'm trying to solve:
clear all
textdata = {'DateTime','St','uSt','Ln','W'};
data = rand(365,4);
Final = struct('data',data,'textdata',{textdata})
clear textdata data
From this, Final.data contains values which correspond to the headings in Final.textdata excluding the first ('DateTime') thus Final.data(:,1) corresponds to the heading 'St'... and so on. What I'm trying to do is to create a variable in the workspace for each of these vectors. So, I would have a variable for St, uSt, Ln, and W in the workspace with the corresponding values given in Final.data.
How could this be done?
Will this solve your problem:
for ii=2:length( textdata )
assignin('base',Final.textdata{ii},Final.data(:,ii-1));
end
Let me know if I misunderstood.
The direct answer to your question is to use the assignin function, like so (edit: just like macduff suggested 10 minutes ago):
%Starting with a Final structure containing the data, like this
Final.textdata = {'DateTime','St','uSt','Ln','W'};
Final.data = rand(365,4);
for ix = 1:4
assignin('base',Final.textdata{ix+1}, Final.data(:,ix));
end
However, I strongly discourage using dynamic variable names to encode data like this. Code that starts this way usually ends up as spaghetti code full of long string concatenations and eval statements. Better is to use a structure, like this
for ix = 1:4
dataValues(Final.textdata{ix+1}) = Final.data(:,ix);
end
Or, to get the same result in a single line:
dataValues = cell2struct(num2cell(Final.data,1), Final.textdata(2:end),2)
