Comparing two MATLAB functions inside SIMULINK models

1 view (last 30 days)
Hello, I am trying to compare 2 functions like below. When I use visdiff, it can't identify these functions as they are not stored separately in a directory, hence not on a folder path. Is there any alternative?

Hi Deepayan Bhadra,
  • If you have access to the source code of the functions, you can copy them and place them in any folder, then add that folder to the MATLAB path. After this, you can use the 'visdiff' function to visualize the differences in source code:
visdiff(filename1,filename2);
  • For more information on the visdiff function, refer the following MATLAB documentation - https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/visdiff.html
  • If you don't have access to the source code, you can indirectly compare the functions by matching their outputs. To do this, provide a set of data inputs to both functions and compare their outputs. This can help identify any differences in behaviour.
  • If it helps, you can also compare entire Simulink models. For more information on comparing Simulink models, refer the following MATLAB documentation - https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/model-comparison.html
Hope this is helpful.
