MATLAB OpenSim indexing

[Shivangi Giri]

Hello,
OpenSim indexes start from 0 whereas MATLAB's start from 1, however in the examples provided with OpenSim package (like createActuatorsFile.m), the index starts from 0. Kindly let me know how to achieve this. Because whenever I start indexing with 0 in my MATLAB code usign OpenSim libraries I get the following error.

"Array indices must be positive integers or logical values."

Hi Shivangi,

This message doesn't come from OpenSim but from MATLAB which suggests you're trying to use MATLAB index on an OpenSim object. Fundamentally you should only use the OpenSim methods to access OpenSim objects, for example using methods like

get(index)

rather than direct indexing.

Hope this helps,
