Print an array of coordinates with 2 Arrays of Varriables.

8 views (last 30 days)
I have two Arrays of multiple numbers lets call it X and Y. I Need to make another array of numbers displayed as cordinates. So let's say that X[150 200 300 500] and Y[300 500 800 300] I need an array like [150,300 200,500 300,800 500,300]. the purpose is then to copy the data and paste to Autacad to make a polyline. Is there a simple way to do this ? I appriciate any kind of help.

Simple in Matlab
X = [150 200 300 500]';
Y = [300 500 800 300]';
coords = [X,Y]
coords =
150 300
200 500
300 800
500 300

Add a new line character and use the fprintf command:
X = [150 200 300 500]';
Y = [300 500 800 300]';
thematrix = [X,Y]';
asvector = thematrix(:);
stringvector = num2str(asvector);
comma_vector = repmat(',\',1,numel(X))';
return_vector = repmat(' n',1,numel(X))';
blah = [stringvector,comma_vector,return_vector]';
%XY = ['[',blah(1:end-1),']']
fprintf(blah(:)')
Produces this in the command window:
150, 300
200, 500
300, 800
500, 300
