matlab.unittest.constraints.IsFinite Class

Namespace: matlab.unittest.constraints
Superclasses: matlab.unittest.constraints.BooleanConstraint

Test if array elements are finite values

Description

The matlab.unittest.constraints.IsFinite class provides a constraint to test if elements of an array are finite values.

Creation

Description

example

c = matlab.unittest.constraints.IsFinite creates a constraint to test if all elements of an array are finite values. The constraint is satisfied by a numeric array that does not contain any infinite or NaN values.

Examples

collapse all

Test numeric arrays using the IsFinite constraint.

First, import the classes used in this example.

import matlab.unittest.TestCase
import matlab.unittest.constraints.IsFinite

Create a test case for interactive testing.

testCase = TestCase.forInteractiveUse;

Verify that the value 5 is finite.

testCase.verifyThat(5,IsFinite)
Verification passed.

Test if the vector [1 1 2 3 5 8 13] satisfies the IsFinite constraint. The test passes because all vector elements are finite.

testCase.verifyThat([1 1 2 3 5 8 13],IsFinite)
Verification passed.

Test [-Inf 5 NaN]. The test fails because the vector contains an infinite value as well as a NaN value.

testCase.verifyThat([-Inf 5 NaN],IsFinite)
Verification failed.

    IsFinite failed.
    --> All elements must be finite-valued.
        Failing indices:
            [1 3]
    
    Actual Value:
      -Inf     5   NaN

Test if a complex number with an infinite imaginary part satisfies the constraint. The test fails.

testCase.verifyThat(3+1i/0,IsFinite)
Verification failed.

Verify that the matrix [1 NaN; -Inf 3] is not finite.

testCase.verifyThat([1 NaN; -Inf 3],~IsFinite)
Verification passed.
