union

Union of fixed.Interval objects

Since R2019b

Description

example

C = union(A, B) returns the union of fixed.Interval objects A and B.

Examples

collapse all

Create two fixed.Interval objects.

interval1 = fixed.Interval(-10, 10)
interval1 = 
    [-10,10]

  1x1 fixed.Interval with properties:

              LeftEnd: -10
             RightEnd: 10
         IsLeftClosed: true
        IsRightClosed: true
interval2 = fixed.Interval(0,20)
interval2 = 
    [0,20]

  1x1 fixed.Interval with properties:

              LeftEnd: 0
             RightEnd: 20
         IsLeftClosed: true
        IsRightClosed: true

Find the union of the two Interval objects.

intervalUnion = union(interval1, interval2)
intervalUnion = 
    [-10,20]

  1x1 fixed.Interval with properties:

              LeftEnd: -10
             RightEnd: 20
         IsLeftClosed: true
        IsRightClosed: true

The output is an Interval object whose range is the union of the ranges of the two input objects.

When the ranges of the two input Interval objects do not overlap, the output is an array of Interval objects covering the union of the ranges of the inputs.

interval3 = fixed.Interval(100, 200)
interval3 = 
    [100,200]

  1x1 fixed.Interval with properties:

              LeftEnd: 100
             RightEnd: 200
         IsLeftClosed: true
        IsRightClosed: true
intervalUnion = union(interval1, interval3)
intervalUnion = 
    [-10,10]    [100,200]

  1x2 fixed.Interval with properties:

              LeftEnd
             RightEnd
         IsLeftClosed
        IsRightClosed

Input Arguments

collapse all

Input fixed.Interval objects, specified as fixed.Interval objects, or arrays of fixed.Interval objects.

Output Arguments

collapse all

Union of input fixed.Interval objects, returned as a fixed.Interval object or an array of fixed.Interval objects.

The output Interval object contains all values in A or B.
