Storing the output of spap2 into an array then looping and graphing that output

Basically I have a matrix of data that I am trying to curve fit. I am using the spap2 function. Since I have an array of data that I am looping through and for each iteration I am trying to store the output of spap2 into an array so that I can graph that array later on in another loop.

The problem can be split into two parts: 1) Storing the output of spap2 into an array. 2) Looping through the array with the spap2 functions and graphing each iteration (with a 0.5 seconds pause between each graph) to produce a "dynamic graph" that changes with time!

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Sample of code I am using is below:

for counter = 1:limit

      curv = curvature(counter,:);                                                % Curvature of this iterations                                                                         
      moment = curv.*(E*I);
      LOC = -flip(locations);
      Ycurv = flip(curv);
      Ymoment = flip(moment);
      W = flip(w);

      sp = spap2(1, k , LOC, Ycurv , W);
      sp2 = spap2 (1, k , LOC , Ymoment, W);

      theta = fnint(sp);
      deflectionarray(counter,1) = fnint(theta);

      momentarray(counter,1) = sp2;
      shear = fnder(sp2);
      soilrctnarray(counter,1) = fnder(shear);

end

spap2() is not a built-in function, at least not in any of my toolboxes. Where did you get it? If it's in an official Mathworks toolbox, list it in the Products section below.

Looks like CurveFitting

Its one of the curvefitting functions.

The output of spap2 is a struct, something like:

   >>sp
   sp = 

     form: 'B-'
    knots: [1x25 double]
   ...

Maybe this is not what you would like to use in a dynamic plot. You could instead use fnplt(sp) in every step, or pts = fnplt(sp); plot(pts(1,:), pts(2,:)), ...
