DATA_GLASBERG1990 - Notched-noise data for the ERB scale

Program code:

function [delta,sym,asymR,asymL]=data_glasberg1990(varargin)
%DATA_GLASBERG1990 Notched-noise data for the ERB scale
%   Usage: [delta,sym,asymR,asymL]=data_glasberg1990;
%
%   DATA_GLASBERG1990 returns data from Fig.5 (left panel only) from Glasberg &
%   Moore (1990) showing notched-noise data measured both in symmetrical
%   and asymetrical conditions at a center frequency (fc) of 100 Hz.
%
%   Examples:
%   ---------
%
%   To plot Fig. 5 use :
%
%     data_glasberg1990('plot');
