table.setvar (Tablicious v0.4.4)
Description: User manual for Tablicious for Octave.

#### 8.2.55.37 table.setvar ¶

Method: `out =` setvar `(obj, varRef, value)` ¶

  Set value for a variable in table.

  This sets (adds or replaces) the value for a variable in obj. It may be used to change the value of an existing variable, or add a new variable.

  This method exists primarily because I cannot get `obj.foo = value` to work, apparently due to an issue with Octave’s subsasgn support.

  varRef is a variable reference, either the index or name of a variable. If you are adding a new variable, it must be a name, and not an index.

  value is the value to set the variable to. If it is scalar or a single string as charvec, it is scalar-expanded to match the number of rows in obj.
