datedisp

Display date entries

Syntax

datedisp(NumMat,DateForm)

CharMat = datedisp(NumMat,DateForm)

Description

datedisp(NumMat,DateForm) displays the matrix with the serial dates formatted as date character vectors, using a matrix with mixed numeric entries and serial date number entries. Integers between datenum('01-Jan-1900') and datenum('01-Jan-2200') are assumed to be serial date numbers, while all other values are treated as numeric entries.

CharMat = datedisp(NumMat,DateForm) displays the output matrix CharMat.
