data access object pattern in matlab

Here's an example implementation of the Data Access Object (DAO) pattern in MATLAB:

%% DataAccessObject.m

classdef (Abstract) DataAccessObject < handle
    % DataAccessObject is an abstract class that defines the interface for
    % accessing data in a database.
    
    methods (Abstract)
        % Abstract methods to be implemented by subclasses.
        data = read(obj, id)
        update(obj, id, data)
        delete(obj, id)
        create(obj, data)
    end
    
end

%% ConcreteDataAccessObject.m

classdef ConcreteDataAccessObject < DataAccessObject
    % ConcreteDataAccessObject is a concrete implementation of the DataAccessObject.
    % For the sake of simplicity, it uses an in-memory data store.
    
    properties
        data
    end
    
    methods
        function obj = ConcreteDataAccessObject()
            % Initialize an empty data store.
            obj.data = struct('id', {}, 'value', {});
        end
        
        function data = read(obj, id)
            % Lookup an item in the data store by ID.
            item = obj.findItem(id);
            if isempty(item)
                data = [];
                return
            end
            data = item.value;
        end
        
        function update(obj, id, data)
            % Update an existing item in the data store by ID.
            item = obj.findItem(id);
            if isempty(item)
                error('Item not found: %d', id);
            end
            item.value = data;
        end
        
        function delete(obj, id)
            % Delete an item from the data store by ID.
            item = obj.findItem(id);
            if isempty(item)
                error('Item not found: %d', id);
            end
            obj.data(item.index) = [];
        end
        
        function create(obj, data)
            % Create a new item in the data store.
            id = obj.generateId();
            obj.data(end+1) = struct('id', id, 'value', data);
        end
    end
    
    methods (Access = private)
        function item = findItem(obj, id)
            % Lookup an item in the data store by ID.
            item = [];
            for i = 1:numel(obj.data)
                if obj.data(i).id == id
                    item = struct('index', i, 'value', obj.data(i).value);
                    break
                end
            end
        end
        
        function id = generateId(obj)
            % Generate a new unique ID for a new item.
            if isempty(obj.data)
                id = 1;
            else
                id = obj.data(end).id + 1;
            end
        end
    end
    
end

In the above example, DataAccessObject is an abstract class that defines the interface for accessing data in a database. The concrete implementation of the DAO is defined in ConcreteDataAccessObject. For the sake of simplicity, it uses an in-memory data store implemented as a struct. The four basic CRUD methods (create, read, update, delete) are defined as abstract methods in the DataAccessObject class and are implemented in the ConcreteDataAccessObject.

To use this DAO implementation, you would first create an instance of ConcreteDataAccessObject and then call its methods to create, read, update, and delete data in the data store. For example:

dao = ConcreteDataAccessObject();

% Create a new item.
data = 42;
dao.create(data);

% Read the item back by ID.
id = 1;
readData = dao.read(id);

% Update the item.
newData = 43;
dao.update(id, newData);

% Delete the item.
dao.delete(id);
