Data Definition Basics

Data, variables, and functions for code acceleration

Topics

Eliminate Redundant Copies of Variables in Generated Code

Use coder.nullcopy to indicate that the code generator can allocate memory without initializing it.

Reuse the Same Variable with Different Properties

Reuse a variable with different properties when the code generator can determine the properties of each occurrence of the variable.

Data Definition for Code Generation

Define data in MATLAB® code intended for code generation.

Variables Definition for Code Generation

Define the class, size, and complexity of variables in MATLAB source code before using them.

Best Practices for Defining Variables for C/C++ Code Generation

Follow guidelines for defining variables in MATLAB code intended for code generation.

Reassignment of Variable Properties

Reassign a variable with a value of different class, size, or complexity.

Supported Variable Types

Use data types that code generation supports.

Code Generation for Complex Data

Use complex data in MATLAB code intended for code generation.

Code Generation for Sparse Matrices

Use sparse matrices in MATLAB code intended for code generation.

Array Size Restrictions for Code Generation

The code generator and the target hardware constrain the maximum number of elements of an array.
