Algorithm (Workflow)
This algorithm is a MATLAB function named PLcat that concatenates multiple point lists into a single list. It is part of the SG-Library and was created by Tim Lueth on April 23, 2013.
Input Parameters
- PL: One or more point lists provided as input, separated by commas. These lists are passed as variable input arguments to the function.
Output Results
- PL: The resulting concatenated point list, which combines all input point lists into a single list.
Algorithm Explanation
The function PLcat is designed to take multiple point lists as input and concatenate them into a single list. The function uses the following steps:
- Initialize the output point list
PL with the first input argument using varargin{1}.
- Check if there are two or more input arguments using
nargin.
- If there are additional input arguments, iterate over each one starting from the second argument.
- For each additional input argument, concatenate it to the existing
PL using the semicolon operator [PL; varargin{i}], which appends the new list to the existing one.
- Return the concatenated point list
PL as the output.
Example Usage
An example of using this function is PL=PLcat(A,B,C,D), where A, B, C, and D are point lists. The function will concatenate these lists into a single list PL.
