Access elements of arrays distributed among workers in parallel pool
codistributed, codistributed.build
You can also create a codistributed array explicitly from spmd code or a communicating job task with any of several MATLAB functions.

| |
| codistributed.cell |
| codistributed.spalloc |
| codistributed.speye |
| codistributed.sprand |
codistributed.sprandn |
Arrays partitioned among the workers in a pool, are accessible from the workers as codistributed array objects.
Codistributed arrays on workers that you create inside spmd statements or from within task
functions of communicating jobs can be accessed as distributed arrays
on the client.

The methods for codistributed arrays are too numerous to list here. Most resemble and behave the same as built-in MATLAB functions. See Using MATLAB Functions on Distributed Arrays.
Also among the methods there are several for examining the characteristics of the array itself. Most behave like the MATLAB functions of the same name:
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Class (data type) of the elements in the array |
iscodistributed | Indication if array is codistributed |
isreal | Indication if array elements are real |
length | Length of vector or largest array dimension |
ndims | Number of dimensions in the array |
size | Size of array dimensions |
