disp
Display text or array
disp(X)
disp(X)
displays an array, without printing the array name. If X
contains a text string, the string is displayed.
Another way to display an array on the screen is to type its name, but this prints a leading "X
=,"
which is not always desirable.
One use of disp
in an M-file is to display a matrix with column labels:
disp(' Corn Oats Hay') disp(rand(5,3))which results in
Corn Oats Hay 0.2113 0.8474 0.2749 0.0820 0.4524 0.8807 0.7599 0.8075 0.6538 0.0087 0.4832 0.4899 0.8096 0.6135 0.7741formatControl the output display format
