table2grid (MatArray Toolbox)

MatArray Toolbox

table2grid

Goes from a linear form of the data, with each spot after the other, to a 2D from of the data, where the coordinates in the matrix correspond to the coordinates on the slide.

Syntax

res = table2grid(data, shape)

Description

data is a vector with the values for each spot. shape gives the physical layout of the slide, in the form [ Rows Columns MetaRows MetaColumns ]. The resulting matrix res contains the spots arranged in a way similar to the one on the slide.

Examples

M = 1:24;
res = table2grid(M,[3 2 2 2])
res =
     1     2     7     8
     3     4     9    10
     5     6    11    12
    13    14    19    20
    15    16    21    22
    17    18    23    24
M2 = grid2table(res,[3 2 2 2])'
M2 =
  Columns 1 through 12 
     1     2     3     4     5     6     7     8     9    10    11    12
  Columns 13 through 24
