	)

Return a scalar object of class pm.sampling.FileContentsSample.

This is the constructor of the class pm.sampling.FileContentsSample.

Parameters

[in]	file	: The input scalar MATLAB string containing the path to an external file.
[in]	silent	: See the corresponding argument of pm.sampling.FileContentsRestart class. (optional. The default is set by pm.sampling.FileContentsRestart.)
[in]	sep	: The input scalar MATLAB string containing the field separator used in the file. (optional, default = ",")

Returns

self : The output scalar object of class pm.sampling.FileContentsSample.

Possible calling interfaces ⛓

contents = pm.sampling.FileContentsSample(file)
contents = pm.sampling.FileContentsSample(file, [])
contents = pm.sampling.FileContentsSample(file, silent)

Field Documentation

ndim

Property FileContentsSample::ndim

ndim

The scalar MATLAB integer representing the number of dimensions of the domain of the objective function sampled.
This integer is also the number of columns in the file that correspond that contain the sampled states from the domain of the mathematical objective function.

Definition at line 39 of file FileContentsSample.m.

slfc

Property FileContentsSample::slfc

slfc

The scalar MATLAB integer representing the column index of the dataframe component df that contains the natural logarithm of the objective function values corresponding to the sampled states next to this column, such that the following relationship holds.

FileContentsSample.ndim = FileContentsSample.ncol - FileContentsSample.slfc;

While this column index can be readily inferred by exploring the contents of the dataframe component, this column index is also computed and explicitly offered to conveniently slice the values of the sampled states and their corresponding log-function values.

Definition at line 59 of file FileContentsSample.m.

slfcname

Property FileContentsSample::slfcname

slfcname

The Hidden scalar MATLAB string representing the column name of the dataframe component df that contains the natural logarithm of the objective function values corresponding to the sampled states next to this column.

Warning

This is an internal Hidden class attribute that is inaccessible to the end users.

Definition at line 99 of file FileContentsSample.m.

stats

Property FileContentsSample::stats

stats

The scalar MATLAB object containing the set of computed properties of the contents of the file.
This component is populated by the subclasses automatically.
It can also be manually constructed by calling the Hidden class method pm.sampling.FileContentsSample::setstats.

Definition at line 70 of file FileContentsSample.m.

vis

Property FileContentsSample::vis

vis

The scalar MATLAB struct containing the set of predefined visualizations for the output data.
This component is populated by the subclasses automatically.
It can also be manually constructed by calling the Hidden class method pm.sampling.FileContentsSample::setvis.

Definition at line 80 of file FileContentsSample.m.
