Algorithm (Workflow)

This algorithm is a MATLAB function named publishSGPDF from the SG-Library, designed to publish specific files in a specified format. Below is a detailed explanation of the algorithm and its parameters.

Input Parameters

• nrs: A sequence of numbers indicating which files to publish. The default range is from 1 to 80.

Algorithm Steps

1. The function publishSGPDF is called with optional input parameters, which are processed using getfuncparams to determine the sequence of numbers (nrs) to be used. If no input is provided, the default sequence is 1 to 80.
2. The variable form is set to 'html', indicating the format in which the files will be published.
3. An empty statement workdir;; is present, which seems to be a placeholder or a typo, as it does not perform any operation.
4. A loop iterates over each number in the nrs sequence:
• For each number i, a variable vname is created using sprintf to format the string 'VLFL_EXP' followed by the number i with two digits.
• A debug message is printed using dbprintf to indicate the start of the publishing process for the current file vname in the specified format form.
• The try block is entered to handle potential errors during the publishing process:
• All open figures are closed using close all.
• The publish function is called with vname and form to generate the file in the desired format. The resulting filename is stored in fname.
• A success message is printed using dbprintf to indicate the successful completion of the publishing process for the current file.
• If the nrs sequence contains only one number, the published file is opened using openbydoubleclick.
• The catch block is empty, meaning any errors during the publishing process are silently ignored.

The function is designed to automate the process of publishing a series of files in a specified format, with default behavior and error handling mechanisms in place.
