Live script tasks: Reading the variables from a table using "tasks"

To whom it may concern:

I have been using the "tasks" functionality in the Live Scripts, since its release in R2019b.

I am trying to look at table data, both columns within the table are numeric. It is attached as a *.mat file.

However, I am not able to access the variable from the table for the X-axis. What could be wrong or what am I doing wrong?

Should I place the data in another format for the "task" to work?

Thank you in advance.

Hi GS76,

The reason that you cannot access the table variable is that the "X-axis" dropdown is filtering out table variables that will cause the generated code to error. Here, the variable chosen for "X-axis" must be sorted with unique elements. Neither of the table variables in your MAT file are sorted and both contain duplicates.

This "X-axis" corresponds to the "SamplePoints" name-value pair in the function ISCHANGE. Please see this documentation page for further information: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/ischange.html#d118e756125
