sint

Create a MATLAB structure describing a signed integer data type.

Syntax

a = sint(TotalBits)

Description

sint(TotalBits) returns a MATLAB structure that describes the data type of a signed integer with a word size given by TotalBits.

Note

sint is automatically called when a signed integer is specified in a block dialog box. The default radix point for this data type is assumed to lie to the right of all bits.

Example

Define a 16-bit signed integer data type.

a = sint(16)
a =
    Class: 'INT'
    IsSigned: 1
    MantBits: 16
