reshape: MATLAB reshape function

Description

Reshape matrix or array.

Usage

reshape(A, ...)

Arguments

A

matrix or array containing the original data

...

numeric dimensions for the result

Value

• Returns matrix (or array) of requested dimensions containing the elements of A.

Details

In the first example below, an m-by-n matrix is created whose elements are taken column-wise from A. An error occurs if A does not have $m*n$ elements. In the second example below, an n-dimensional array with the same elements as A but reshaped to have the size m-by-n-by-p. The product of the specified dimensions must be the same as prod(size(A)). In the third example below, an n-dimensional array with the same elements as A but reshaped to siz, a vector representing the dimensions of the reshaped array. The quantity prod(siz) must be the same as prod(size(A)).

Examples

Xmat.2d <- matrix(1:12, nrow = 4, ncol = 3)
reshape(Xmat.2d, 6, 2)                   # example 1
reshape(Xmat.2d, c(6, 2))                    # same thing
Xarr.3d <- reshape(Xmat.2d, c(6, 2, 1))  # example 2
reshape(Xmat.2d, size(Xarr.3d))          # example 3
