File Exchange Pick of the Week

Simulink pick

I am a MATLAB kind of guy, but there is a whole other side to the File Exchange: Simulink. I enlisted Becky’s help in choosing a good Simulink file this week:

This is a single block that you can drop into any Simulink model you want to generate code for, and it will generate an additional file that describes the inputs, outputs and states of the model. Simple idea, even simpler implementation – just drop the block into an existing model and generate the code. For those large and complex models that have to be integrated with other pieces of code, it makes life easier by doing a lot of the bookkeeping for you. Check it out on a simple model, for example, the shipping demo rtwdemo_f14.

Becky knew I that I would want a quick link to a MATLAB file, so she also sent along this sea shell generator

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
