Create an unpopulated two-dimensional cell mxArray
C Syntax
#include "matrix.h" mxArray *mxCreateCellMatrix(int m, int n);
Arguments
m
The desired number of rows.
n
Returns
A pointer to the created cell mxArray
, if successful. If unsuccessful in a stand-alone (nonMEX-file) application, mxCreateCellMatrix
returns NULL
. If unsuccessful in a MEX-file, the MEX-file terminates and control returns to the MATLAB prompt. Insufficient free heap space is the only reason for mxCreateCellMatrix
to be unsuccessful.
Description
Use mxCreateCellMatrix
to create an m-by-n two-dimensional cell mxArray
. The created cell mxArray
is empty; that is, mxCreateCellMatrix
initializes each cell to NULL
. To put data into cells, call mxSetCell
.
mxCreateCellMatrix
is identical to mxCreateCellArray
except that mxCreateCellMatrix
can create two-dimensional mxArrays
only, but mxCreateCellArray
can create mxArrays
having any number of dimensions greater than 1.
Example
See mxcreatecellmatrix.c
in the mx
subdirectory of the examples
directory.
