Description

The InitialAmount property indicates the initial quantity of the SimBiology^® species object. InitialAmount is the quantity of the species before the simulation starts.

The InitialAmount property and Value property are identical.

Characteristics

Applies to	Object: species
Data type	double
Data values	Positive real number. Default value is 0.

Examples

Add a species to a model and set the initial amount of the species.

1. Create a model object named my_model.

   modelObj = sbiomodel ('my_model');

2. Add the species object named glucose.

   speciesObj = addspecies (modelObj, 'glucose');

3. Set the initial amount to 100 and verify.

   set (speciesObj, 'InitialAmount',100);
   get (speciesObj, 'InitialAmount')

   MATLAB^® returns:

   ans =
   
      100
