.NET Enumerations in MATLAB
MATLAB allows you to work with .NET enumerations using features of the MATLAB enumeration class and some features unique to .NET.
Enumerations contain members, methods, and underlying values. Terms you should know:
Enumeration — In MATLAB, a class having a finite set of named instances. In the following topics, the term
enumerationrefers to a .NET enumeration.Enumeration member — Named instance of an enumeration class.
Underlying value — Numeric value associated with an enumeration member.
Note
The MATLAB language supports user-defined enumeration classes. If you are using enumerations defined in MATLAB, refer to the topics under the creating MATLAB classes Enumerations category.
