First input string, specified as a scalar.

Data Types: string

Second input string, specified as a scalar.

Data Types: string

Output

Concatenated string, specified as a scalar.

Data Types: string

Parameters

expand all

Number of input strings to concatenate, specified as a scalar. You can specify from 2 to 512 input ports.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: Inputs
Type: character vector
Values: scalar from 2 to 512
Default: '2'

Output data type, specified using the string data type to specify a string with no maximum length.

To specify a string data type with a maximum length, specify stringtype(N). For example, stringtype(128) creates a string data type with a maximum length of 128 characters.

Click the Show data type assistant button to display the Data Type Assistant, which helps you set the data type attributes. See Specify Data Types Using Data Type Assistant for more information.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: OutDataTypeStr
Type: character vector
Values: 'string' | <data type expression>
Default: 'string'

Use the stringtype function, for example, stringtype(128).

Dependency

Clicking the Show data type assistant button enables this parameter.
