Number of polyshape boundaries

Syntax

N = numboundaries(polyin)

N = numboundaries(polyin) returns the number of boundaries of a polyshape object.

Create a polygon and determine its number of boundaries.

x1 = [0 1 2];
y1 = [0 1 0];
x2 = [2 3 4];
y2 = [1 2 1];
polyin = polyshape({x1,x2},{y1,y2});
plot(polyin)

N = numboundaries(polyin)

N = 2

Input polyshape, specified as a scalar, vector, matrix, or multidimensional array.
