Re: extracting value from a vector

[James Sherman Jr.]

Yes.  I may miss the subtleties, but the only way I've seen the assignment

[a,b,c] = <something>

work is when <something> is a function and that it returns 3 different variables.

Hi

A trivial question, but i don't find the answer in the doc.
i would like to assign value of a vector individually to some variables.

This fails : octave> [ a, b, c ] = v;
everything goes in 'a', and b is undefined.

Is it necessary to write a = v(1); b = v(2) ...
or did i missed something ?
