MATLAB: Error using Reshape pls help

reshape function

My code is as follows and the error i get is
Error using reshape To RESHAPE the number of elements must not change.
Error in maint (line 148) l_dp=reshape(l_dp1,4,8);
Can someone pls help
code:-
     % delta_edp : if link e on path p used for demand d
      % x_dp  : if path used for demand
      % y_e  : if link e used in any primary path

Best Answer

How many elements are in l_dp before you try to reshape it? To reshape it into a 4 x 8 arrangement, numel(l_dp) must equal 32. Here's an example
a = magic(6)
Above, a is 6-by-6 and thus has as 36 elements. You can reshape a into a 4-by-9 matrix by
a = reshape(a,4,9)
because 4 times 9 is 36, meaning there's you're not trying to change the number of elements in a when you reshape it. If you try to reshape a into a 4-by-8 matrix, it'll give you an error:
reshape(a,4,8)
Error using reshape
To RESHAPE the number of elements must not change.
