Algorithm (Workflow)
This function, number2vec, converts a number into a vector of its individual digits. It is part of the SolidGeometry library and was introduced in version 4.5.
Input Parameters
- s: This can be either a string or an integer scalar. It represents the number that will be converted into a vector of digits.
Output Results
- vec: A vector of integers, where each element is a digit from the input number.
Algorithm Steps
- Check if the input
s is numeric. If it is, convert it to a string using num2str.
- Determine the number of elements in the string representation of
s using numel.
- Initialize a zero vector
vec with the same number of elements as the string.
- Iterate over each character in the string:
- Convert each character to a double using
str2double and assign it to the corresponding position in vec.
Example Usage
To convert the number 123 into a vector of digits, you can call the function as follows:
number2vec(123)
Alternatively, if the number is provided as a string:
number2vec('123')
