Default argument expression with multiple outputs

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
How do I get the correct output into the default argument if a function used in an expression has more than one output? E.g.
arguments
opts.input2 (1,1) double = function_with_multiple_outputs(function_inputs)
end
Where [output1, output2, etc] = function_with_multiple_outputs(function_inputs) and function_inputs are constants or previously defined arguments. I only want, e.g. opts.input2 to be output2 from function_with_multiple_outputs.

Write a local function that calls function_with_multiple_outputs with multiple outputs then returns only the one you want to use for the default value. Call that local function instead of function_with_multiple_outputs in the arguments block.

"I don't see how this can work because if you declare a variable it is considered an argument"
It works for me, exactly as Steven Lord explained:
mytest(1,3)
ans = 4
function out = mytest(x,y,opts)
arguments
x
y
opts.input2 (1,1) double = localfun(x,y)
end
out = opts.input2;
end
function out = localfun(varargin)
[~,out] = function_with_multiple_outputs(varargin{:});
end
function [A,B] = function_with_multiple_outputs(X,Y)
A = NaN;
B = X+Y;
end

Multiple output arguments must be unique variable names; just define the default for the specific name and it will refer to the one in that position.

No, you can have, for example,
[out{1:3}] = unique(randi(9, 1, 50))
out = 1×3 cell array
{[1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9]} {9×1 double} {50×1 double}

I do not see this working because the outputs can have any name (different from the ones in the function declaration); it is the position that matters.

In MATLAB, there is no (useful) way to assign multiple outputs of a function to a single location, and there is no (useful) way to select a particular output from a command .
What would be legal generally in MATLAB (but not necessarily in an argument block) is
[opts.input2, opts.input2] = function_with_two_outputs();
This would assign the first output to opts.input2 and then assign the second output on top of opts.input2 .

Only if OPTS is scalar (or is implicitly created by that allocation).
