uint8 (MathScript RT Module Function)
Owning Class: support
Requires: MathScript RT Module
Syntax
c = uint8(a)
Description
Converts the input elements to 8-bit unsigned integers.
Inputs
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| a | Specifies a numeric scalar, vector, or matrix. |
Outputs
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| c | Returns the elements of a as 8-bit unsigned integers. c is a scalar, vector, or matrix of the same size as a. If a is a complex number, this function converts the real and imaginary parts of the number separately and then returns a complex number that consists of those parts. To return the 8-bit unsigned representation of a when the input is complex, use the real function to extract the real part of a, then use the uint8 function to convert the real part. |
Details
If an element in a is greater than 2^8-1, the corresponding element in c is 2^8-1. If an element in a is less than 1, the corresponding element in c is 0.
Examples
A = [256.333, 56.4, -88]
C = uint8(A)
