Syntax

y = isequivalent (T1, T2)

Description

y = isequivalent (T1, T2) determines whether the numerictype object inputs have equivalent properties and returns a logical 1 (true) or 0 (false). Two numerictype objects are equivalent if they describe the same data type.

Use isequivalent to determine if two numerictype objects have the same data type. 

T1 = numerictype(1, 16, 2^-12, 0)
T1 =


          DataTypeMode: Fixed-point: slope and bias scaling
            Signedness: Signed
            WordLength: 16
                 Slope: 2^-12
                  Bias: 0

T2 = numerictype(1, 16, 12)
T2 =


          DataTypeMode: Fixed-point: binary point scaling
            Signedness: Signed
            WordLength: 16
        FractionLength: 12

isequivalent(T1,T2)
ans = logical
   1

Although the Data Type Mode is different for T1 and T2, the function returns 1 (true) because the two objects have the same data type.
