Data Definition

Defining data for code acceleration

Control how data is represented, memory is allocated, and which types are used in algorithm acceleration or fixed-point conversion by how you design your MATLAB^® code. Follow the described guidelines to determine the types of variables when accelerating algorithms or converting to fixed-point.
