Zero-Based Indexable Arrays (OOP Exercise) 1.0

I created this class of zero-indexable arrays purely as a fun OOP exercise, in reaction to various Newsgroup threads inquiring about zero-indexable matrix types for MATLAB. Even though I've gone to the trouble to overload many methods for the class, I offer it as a toy, nothing more, and strongly urge you not to use it for anything serious. USAGE: A=ZeroBased(B) where B is a normal MATLAB matrix will cast B to A, which is exactly the same, except that it is 0-based indexed instead of 1-based. EXAMPLE 1: >>A=ZeroBased(rand(3)) A = 0.7922 0.0357 0.6787 0.9595 0.8491 0.7577 0.6557 0.9340 0.7431 >>A(0,2) ans = 0.6787 EXAMPLE 2: It works for sparse matrices to, and will even display at the command line with zero-based indexing display syntax, e.g., >> A=ZeroBased(speye(3)) A = (0,0) 1 (1,1) 1 (2,2) 1
