Examples

  1. Create a model containing three species in one compartment.

    modelObj = sbiomodel('mymodel');
compObj = addcompartment(modelObj, 'comp1');
A = addspecies(compObj, 'A');
B = addspecies(compObj, 'B');
C = addspecies(compObj, 'C');

  2. Add a variant object that varies the species' InitialAmount property.

    variantObj = addvariant(modelObj, 'v1');
addcontent(variantObj, {{'species','A', 'InitialAmount', 5}, ...
{'species', 'B', 'InitialAmount', 10}});
% Display the variant

   3                 species      C                 InitialAmount       15

  4. Remove a species from the Content property.

    rmcontent(variantObj, 3);

  5. Replace the data in the Content property.

    set(variantObj, 'Content', {'species', 'C', 'InitialAmount', 15});
