% STRUCT2CSV(s,fn) | |
% | |
% Output a structure to a comma delimited file with column headers | |
% | |
% s : any structure composed of one or more matrices and cell arrays | |
% fn : file name | |
% | |
% Given s: | |
% | |
% s.Alpha = { 'First', 'Second'; | |
% 'Third', 'Fourth'}; | |
% | |
% s.Beta = [[ 1, 2; | |
% 3, 4]]; | |
% | |
% s.Gamma = { 1, 2; | |
% 3, 4}; | |
% | |
% s.Epsln = [ abc; | |
% def; | |
% ghi]; | |
% | |
% STRUCT2CSV(s,'any.csv') will produce a file 'any.csv' containing: | |
% | |
% "Alpha", , "Beta", ,"Gamma", , "Epsln", | |
% "First","Second", 1, 2, 1, 2, "abc", | |
% "Third","Fourth", 3, 4, 3, 4, "def", | |
% , , , , , , "ghi", | |
% | |
% v.0.9 - Rewrote most of the code, now accommodates a wider variety | |
% of structure children | |
