CMatrix:Cols
The Cols method returns the maximum column index in any row of the CMatrix. This is the number of columns needed to hold every possible index in a completely filled (or "packed") matrix.
|
number = CMatrix:Cols() |
On success,
this method returns the maximum column index in any row.
On failure,
this method returns 0.
This method returns the maximum column index in any row of the matrix. Since all indices do not have to be filled in a sparse matrix, the returned value is not the same as the number of members defined in any row. Since the indices are 1-based, the maximum index is the same number as the maximum column index. For example, if the CMatrix has 1 row with two members, one at index [1][1] and the other at index [1][10000], then Cols = 10000.
Suppose a CMatrix assigned to M contains 3 members as shown below:
|
M = CMatrix:new() |
-- create a CMatrix |
|
M:Set( 2, 44, 1805 ) |
-- set member 2, 44 |
|
M:Set( 50, 20, 102 ) |
-- set member 50, 20 |
|
M:Set( 120, 2, 600.5 ) |
-- set member 120, 2 |
|
Printf("Cols = %d", M:Cols()) |
-- result: Cols = 44 |
|
M:delete() |
-- if finished with M, clean up memory |
