Function Name: battleFormation Inputs: 1. ( double ) 1xN vector of the number of soldiers in each line 2. ( char ) A file name, including extension, for the output file group number File Outputs: 1. A text file showing the soldiers in formations Background: The date is December 21st, 1944. You are Major Hal McCown battalion commander of the U.S. 2nd Battalion. The U.S. has already faced massive casualties in this "Battle of the Bulge." German leader Peiper is on the ropes as his regiment is stretched too thin and his tanks are low on fuel with no reinforcements seeming to be on the way. This is your chance to take them here and win one for the Ol' Red White and Blue and for freedom! You also fancy seeing yourself as a great war hero getting lots of praise back home. This is no time for poor strategy! Lucky for you America has a trick up its star spangled sleeve, MATLAB! Before you charge into battle. You use MATLAB to whip up some tactical battle formations that are sure to win you the war. Function Description: Write a function that that takes in the vector of soldiers in each line and outputs a file showing the soldiers formations. To find the soldiers formations and create the output file, follow these rules: 1. Find the maximum value in the input vector. Each line of the formation will have this many places. 2. For each line of the formation: a. Put the specified number of soldiers from the input vector in the line. For example, if the first number in the vector is 3, there are 3 soldiers in the first line. b. Align the soldiers along the center. If there are 3 soldiers and 5 spaces, there will be one empty space at each end of the line. c. Use a 1 to represent a soldier and a 0 for a vacant position. 3. The output file, given by the second input, should print the lines in the following format: Line has the following line up: a. refers to the current line number, which should start at 1 and increment by 1 for each line, and refers to the soldiers formation. b. There should be two spaces in between the numbers representing the positions. Continued... Homework 8 - Low Level File I/O Example: >> formation([3 5 1], 'formation1.txt') Formation1.txt: 1| Line 1 has the following line up: 0 1 1 1 0 2| Line 2 has the following line up: 1 1 1 1 1 3| Line 3 has the following line up: 0 0 1 0 0 Notes: You are guaranteed that all numbers will be odd. There should not be an empty new line at the end of the file. Hints: Think about how you can find the center of each line and index from there. The zeros() function may be helpful. What happens when you call num2str() on a vector of doubles?
