%TESTDATASIZE of datafiles and convert to dataset

%	 B = TESTDATASIZE(A,STRING)
%  I = TESTDATASIZE(A,STRING,FALSE)

%
% INPUT
%  A         datafile or dataset
%  STRING    'data' (default) or 'features' or 'objects'
%  N         Given data size to be tested
%
% OUTPUT
%  B         Converted dataset
%  I         TRUE:  conversion possible
%            FALSE: conversion not possible
%
% DESCRIPTION
% Depending on the value of PRMEMORY and the size of the datafile A, it is
% converted to a dataset, otherwise an error is generated.
% In case the third parameter is FALSE or the first is a scalar just a test
% is executed. In case of no output arguments an error is generated if
% conversion in impossible.
%
% The parameter STRING controls the type of comparison:
%
% 'data'          PROD(SIZE(A)) < PRMEMORY
% 'objects'       SIZE(A,1).^2  < PRMEMORY
% 'features'      SIZE(A,2).^2  < PRMEMORY
