uint8

Converts to 8-bit unsigned integer.

Syntax

• Y = uint8(X)

Input argument

• X - a matrix of double, single or integers.

Output argument

• Y - a matrix of 8-bit unsigned integer.

Description

uint8 converts value to 8-bit unsigned integer type.

The value is rounded to the nearest uint8 value on conversion. A value that is above or below the range for an uint8 class is mapped to one of the endpoints of the range [0, 255].

Example

A = [1 256 -120 127 -1 215]
B = uint8(A)
