How to display error using error function?
显示 更早的评论
I have a program that computes thermal conductivity based on an input of a certain alloy and temperature. I would like to have the function display an error if the wrong alloy is inputted. Would It be possible to do this with the error function? This is the code I have so far.
function k = ThCond(alloy,T) % T = input temperature
k = zeros(1,numel(T));
for a = 1:numel(T)
if (298 <= T(a)) && (T(a) <= 840) && strcmp(alloy,'Al2')
k(a) = 149.7 + 0.0809.*T(a) - (1.*10^(-4)).*(T(a).^2);
elseif (298 <= T(a)) && (T(a) <= 773)
k(a) = 76.64 + 0.2633.*T(a) - (2.*10^(-4)).*(T(a)^2);
end
if (293 <= T(a)) && (T(a) <= 890) && strcmp(alloy,'Al3')
k(a) = 124.7 + 0.56.*T(a) + (1*10^(-5)).*(T(a)^2);
end
if (100 <= T(a)) && (T(a) <= 1200) && strcmp(alloy,'Cu1')
k(a) = 453.9 - 0.1054.*T(a);
end
if (460 <= T(a)) && (T(a) <= 1188) && strcmp(alloy,'Cu2')
k(a) = 140.62 + (112.14.*10^(-4)).*T(a);
end
if T(a) <= 1443 && strcmp(alloy,'Cu3')
k(a) = 16.041 + (438.9.*10^(-4)).*T(a);
end
if (400 <= T(a)) && (T(a) <= 1000) && strcmp(alloy,'St1')
k(a) = 76.63 - 0.0459.*T(a);
end
if (298 < T(a)) && (T(a) < 1573) && strcmp(alloy,'St2')
k(a) = 6.31 + ((27.2.*10^(-3)).*T(a)) - (7.*10^(-6)).*(T(a).^2);
end
if T(a) <= 1727 && strcmp(alloy,'St3')
k(a) = 20 + (61.5.*10^(-4)).*T(a);
end
end
end

An error will break out of the routine and stop execution. A warning will display text to the command window but keep going. Generally, it's most graceful to use a warning followed by a return command as the exit to a subroutine that fails to execute. Will this work for you?

error('Alloy must be H2SO4 or CuTi2C6H8') ;

That's literally what the 'error' function does. It displays an error and breaks execution (unless it's part of a try,catch structure). So you'd put it as the result of an 'else' statement or possibly as result of an 'otherwise' option in a switch,case structure.
If you you don't want an actual error message and just want text displayed to the screen you can use the 'disp' or 'warning' commands instead.

Could you expand upon that remark?
