41 Collection objects serve as merely a wrapper for a cell-array of LTPDA User Objects. The point of this is to provide
42 a way to put together user objects of different classes in to a collection which can be saved/loaded/submitted/retrieved, etc.
43 </p>
44 <p>
45 You can create a <tt>collection</tt> object like:
46 <div class="fragment"><pre>
47 >> c = collection
48 ---- collection 1 ----
49 name: none
50 num objs: 0
51 description:
52 UUID: a339a156-956b-4657-96ef-9ea4feef8101
53 ----------------------
54
55 </pre></div>
56 You can then add objects to the collection by doing:
57 <div class="fragment"><pre>
58 >> c.addObjects(ao(1))
59 M: running ao/ao
60 M: constructing from values
61 M: running collection/addObjects
62 M: running ao/char
63 ---- collection 1 ----
64 name: none
65 num objs: 1
66 01: ao | None/cdata(Ndata=[1x1])
67 description:
68 UUID: c1f0200f-ad98-4fd6-beae-2dcdabb33515
69 ----------------------
70
71 </pre></div>
72 or
73 <div class="fragment"><pre>
74 >> c.addObjects(pzmodel(1, 10, 100), mfir())
75 M: running collection/addObjects
76 M: running ao/char
77 ---- collection 1 ----
78 name: none
79 num objs: 3
80 01: ao | None/cdata(Ndata=[1x1])
81 02: pzmodel | pzmodel(None)
82 03: mfir | none(fs=, ntaps=0.00, a=[])
83 description:
84 UUID: e7f02380-5650-4788-b819-f7fa7ee50a7d
85 ----------------------
86
87 </pre></div>
88 </p>
89 <p>
90 You can then extract objects from the collection using <tt>getObjectAtIndex</tt> or get an array of all
91 objects of a particular class using <tt>getObjectsOfClass</tt>. Objects can be removed from the collection using
92 <tt>removeObjectAtIndex</tt>.
93 </p>
94 <p>
95 Since a <tt>collection</tt> object is an LTPDA User Object, it has history tracking capabilities. That means that everytime you
96 add or remove an object to/from the collection, a history step is added. For example, the history of our collection above looks like:
97 <img src="images/collection_history.png" alt="Collection history" border="3">
