Haven't used Matlab in years, and quick search on the web failed to
uncover any such utilities.

Two suggestions: try Octave, a free analysis package similar to Matlab, or
try to set up a shell-accessible script that invokes Matlab, loads the mat
file, displays the variables of interest to stdout, and quits.  Then use
Perl to invoke that command and operate on the output.

RE: [vox-tech] Matlab question

2002-01-12 Thread Holland, Matt

Try "help dlmwrite" in Matlab.  You can use it to write a matrix to a plain
text file using whatever delimiter you desire.  I don't have Matlab in front
of me at the moment, so I forget the exact syntax, but it's pretty simple.

Welcome Eric. Here are some general suggestions to help you to get help:

* Add a descriptive subject to your message
* Copy and paste error messages exactly as they appear into your e-mail.

More specifically, we need the output of 'ifconfig', 'route -n', ifconfig
eth0', and the contents of /etc/resolv.conf to diagnose the problem.

Hi Eric,

Thank you for the useful suggestions. With the comment that 'the machine
can talk to itself via SAMBA' I meant that smbdclient -L myhostname
lists the available SAMBA services. The crossover cable will probably
fix the issue.

Thank you and everyone else for the useful advice,

By evaluating the match in a list context.  See "man perlop" under "Regexp
Quote-Like Operators".

Try:

   print join( ":", "100.extra" =~ /(\d+)\.(.*)/), "\n";

What you do with the resulting list is up to you, and if you only put one
pair of parentheses in the match, your list will only include one item.
When you join the list into a scalar, it will "concatenate" all "one" 
of the list items together, so

  $_ = "100.extra";

  $num = join '', /(\d+)/;

pulls the first sequence of one or more digits out of the string and puts
it into $num.

As far as I know, creating a list context means the left hand side of the
assignment must be a list, or you have to call a function that expects a
list (such as join).

Hi Kevin,

OK, by saying that "the LINUX machine can talk to itself via SAMBA" do
you mean that your linux samba service is up and you can access files
with smbclient and the "service smb status" command returns good smb and
nmbd news? If so, then great. If you are not using a hub, then you need
a crossover cable. Heron's on E Street sells crossover cables and little
crossover converters (dual R45 jacks with the crossover internal).

If you really want to make your own:
http://mike.passwall.com/class/public/ethernet/10T.txt

1 and 3, 2 and 6. Why are 4 and 5 skipped? analog phones use center pairs,
and this allows for those to be used (backwards compatability thing with
rj45)

I second the suggestion for a hub. Useful for company who may bring 
their laptops over, and if IP MASQ uis setup, you can all geek out on the
internet. If you decide to go with a 10/100 hub, then why not pay the
extra ~$100 and get a Wireless Accesspoint with 10/100 ports too, and you
can roam in house with WEP and stuff. :-)

When you consider hubs, getting one with an uplink port is a good idea for
later expansion. (The uplink port logically does the same as a patch cable
and switches the Tx and Rx lines to allow you to connect  hub to a hub.)

my understanding is that the two signal pairs need to reverse, so they match
up with the right pins on the other side. This is called a crossover cable.

Most patch cables, as labeled by fry's/etc, are straight through connections.

My advice would be to buy a cheap hub and make your life easier, since the hub
will take regular cabling, and give you lots of blinking leds to tell you
what's going on :)

what do you mean by "talk to itself"?  it doesn't need samba to talk to
itself.

kevin, is this a crossover cable?  my understanding is that if you
connect two NICs together, one (some?  all?) of the lines need to cross over
to a different position.

Then your approach is the only way I know.  But, you
may want to take care of 'no match' cases.  $+ is the
last match.  If your match fails, then a prior match
will be picked up, *I think*.  (Not tested.)

One other point. the '.' is a metacharacter that
matches anything except a newline character.  So .*
matches the rest of the line.  It you want to match a
'.' then escape it:

# -
use strict;
$_ = '100.energy';

/^(\d*)\./;
print "temp: $1\n";
# -

Good luck.

the string that i'm matching though is $_, not $temperature.  $_ holds a

doesn't

$temperature =~ s/(\d+).*/$1/;

note that i'm being greedy here -- this DOES work:

[vox-tech] dumb perl question

2002-01-12 Thread Peter Jay Salzman

i know i should know this by now...

how does one get assignments out of a backreference from a regex match?

in other words, can statements like this

`wc -l $file` =~ m/\s*(\d+) .*/g;
$NumberOfPoints = $+;

or this:

/(\d+).*/;
$temperature = $+;

be condensed into single line statements?  when i do something like:

$temperature = /(\d+).*/;

the /(\d+).*/ produces a "1".  i imagine that simply means "yes, i was
able to match the regex".

(If eth0 is reported in both, that is a good sign.)
(If eth0 is only reported when you explicitly include "ifconfig eth0" that

If eth0 is listed in both of the above results, can you show us what:

Hello.  I am getting started with Red Hat 7.1 for the first time, and I am
having trouble connecting to the web.  The eth0 device fails to inititalize
at startup.  The following settings appear for the eth0 device:
  
IP address -> entered correctly
netmask -> 255.255.255.0
network -> 169.237.204.0
broadcast -> 169.237.204.255
  
after startup, I activate the eth0 device and try to connect.  I get an
unknown hosts error message.  The error message suggests that I may have to
set the $SOCKS_NS environment variable to point tot he appropriate name
server.  
   
Any suggestions?  Thanks very much.
   
Regards - ECM
