The role of singleton elements in calls to the zeros function.
显示 更早的评论
Hello MatLab'rs,
I'm confused by the return of zeros under certain circumstances.
For some vector V, calling zeros will create a length(V) dimensional matrix:
>> V = [ 1:10 ]
V =
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
>> Z = zeros(V); % Z = <10-D double>
In my code I have a selectedDimLengths vector, each element of which can change from a singleton up to about 6 or 7, but often looks something like:
selectedDimLengths =
1 1 1 5 5 1 1 1 3 1 1 1 1
>> Z = zeros(selectedDimLengths); % Z = <9-D double>
when I pass this to zeros I lose a couple of dimensions, down to 9 when I expect 13. What role do the singleton elements play here? Why?
Are the trailing singleton elements cropped somehow?

Matlab only really needs to know which dimensions are "nonsingular". - A scalar has infinite dimensions, all with a size of 1. - A vector has infinite dimensions, only one of which has a size other than 1.
