MATLAB: How to get edges information in graphshortestpath fuction

Bioinformatics Toolboxedgegraphgraphshortestpath

Hello,

I am using graphshortestpath function for finding shortest path in a graph. I want to know the edges information in the output with the distance and path information. Like, which edges are used to get to the destination using shortest path.

Is there any way to do that?

Thanks in advance.

If you have created formal graph objects then see the bottom part of the example in http://www.mathworks.com/help/bioinfo/ref/graphshortestpath.html

If you have not created a formal graph object, then the edges are implied by the path. If there is a path step from node A to node B then the edge AB was traversed, and the cost for the step is G(A, B)

MATLAB: What is the meaning of ~ at fuction

MATLAB has positional function input and output arguments. This means their purpose is determined entirely by their position when the function is defined and called, not by their names (like in some other programming languages).

It is useful sometimes to ignore particular inputs/outputs, which is what the tilde ~ is for. When defining a function, the tilde ignores a particular input, e.g. using your example the first function has three input arguments, of which only one is used:

function endDAQ(~, ~, s)
%               ^        1st input is ignored
%                  ^     2nd input is ignored
%                     ^  3rd input is named 's'

vs. your second function which only has one input argument:

function endDAQ(s)
%               ^  1st input is named 's'

MATLAB: How to use vectors in the symprod fuction

You cannot use the symbolic variable of symsum() or symprod() to index a vector.

You need to create the vector of definite values first, and then sum() or prod() that definite vector.
