Assign Multiple Variables

646 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have a array for example [1,2,3,4]. I want to assign a variable to each number in the array such that a=1, b=2, c=3, and d=4. I know I can do each one separately but I want to know if it is possible to this in one line.

Kind of reminded me of the FAQ: http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_can_I_create_variables_A1.2C_A2.2C....2CA10_in_a_loop.3F though I'm not saying you don't have a valid reason for doing that - you may well have.

It is not possible in one statement. It is possible in two statements, which you could combine on one line.
t = num2cell([1,2,3,4]);
[a,b,c,d] = deal(t{:});

t = num2cell([1,2,3,4]);
[a,b,c,d] = deal(t{:})
a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
d = 4
[a,b,c,d] = t{:}
a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
d = 4

Back in 2011 it was not possible in one statement, at least not without an inline subsref(). A few years ago, however, a hack became available:
[a,b,c,d] = struct('x', num2cell([1,2,3,4])).x
a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
d = 4

It is now possible to do this in one line cleanly
[a,b,c] = deal(1, "test", [1:5])
Gives me
a =
1
b =
"test"
c =
1 2 3 4 5
As expected

@Raziman Thottungal Valapu: no, that is not what the question is about. The question specifies that there is only one input array, but your code uses multiple separate inputs to deal. Not the same thing at all.

matsplit does this.

Much cleaner than deal(a(1), a(2), a(3), a(4), ...)

The one-liner I have been using is the following:
[a,b,c,d] = feval(@(x) x{:}, num2cell([1,2,3,4]));
(Don't claim it is my original idea, just felt it belongs to this thread. If it is posted elsewhere feel free to link it.)

Additionally, you can replace num2cell with any cell array of the right size, even one containing multiple data types. For example,
[a,b,c,d] = feval(@(x) x{:}, {rand(2), 5, 'hello', pi});
a
a =
0.9502 0.4387
0.0344 0.3816
b
b =
5
c
c =
hello
d
d =
3.1416

That is just subsref wrapped up in an anonymous function, which is then called by feval.
Here it is with subsref called directly:
>> [a,b,c,d] = subsref({rand(2), 5, 'hello', pi}, substruct('{}',{':'}))
a =
0.103676 0.814128
0.208758 0.092132
b = 5
c = hello
d = 3.1416

The thing we are trying to do is emulate the very useful Python idiom e.g.
a,b,c,d = [1,2,3,4]
In Matlab, if you create a function assignList.m as follows:
function varargout = assignList( inputArray )
for i = 1:length( inputArray)
varargout{i} = inputArray(i);
end
end
then you can do for example
[a,b,c,d] = assignList( [1,2,3,4] )

@Stephen23, not with array input directly. See my comments at the answer by @Walter Roberson. My point is that this funciton is uncessary. Plus, I can't resist the "Deal or No deal" pun, now that I realized it.

I would not have written my post if I had noticed the earlier answer which recommended the contributed function matsplit, which is similar to mine but is more flexible when using multidimensional arrays.
