datasets_constants

 datasets_constants Defines (pseudo)-constants for datasets

 This m-file defines values required by functions in the datasets subsystem.
 It differs from datasets_config in the manner that the values here should
 not normally be changed. If called without arguments, returns
 the entire structure containing all properties and values.

 FORMAT

   value = datasets_constants(c)

 IN

   c   string      the property asked for (optional)

 OUT

   v   (any)       the value of property c or the entire struct
