Octave has a limited set of functions for managing sets of data, where a set is defined as a collection unique elements. In Octave a set is represented as a vector of numbers.
Return a row vector containing the unique values in x, sorted in ascending order. For example,
create_set ([ 1, 2; 3, 4; 4, 2 ]) => [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]See also: union, intersection, complement.
Return the unique elements of x, sorted in ascending order. If x is a row vector, return a row vector, but if x is a column vector or a matrix return a column vector. — Function File: unique (A, 'rows')
Return the unique rows of A, sorted in ascending order. — Function File: [y, i, j] = unique (x)
Return index vectors i and j such that
x(i)==y
andy(j)==x
.See also: union, intersect, setdiff, setxor, ismember.
