Delete a sample in a timeseries object.

Create a timeseries and display its time samples and corresponding data.

tsin = timeseries((0:10:50)',(0:5)');
tsin.Time
ans = 6×1

     0
     1
     2
     3
     4
     5


tsin.Data
ans = 6×1

     0
    10
    20
    30
    40
    50

Delete the last sample by referencing its index, which is 6.

tsout = delsample(tsin,'Index',6);
tsout.Time
ans = 5×1

     0
     1
     2
     3
     4

Alternatively, you can specify the time value 5 to remove the last sample of tsin.

tsout = delsample(tsin,'Value',5);

Input Arguments
