%ISOBJIM test if the dataset contains objects that are images
%
%  N = ISOBJIM(A)
%      ISOBJIM(A)
%
% INPUT
%  A  input dataset
%
% OUTPUT
%  N  logical value
%
% DESCRIPTION
% True if the dataset contains objects that are images. If no output is required,
% false outputs are turned into errors. This may be used for assertion.
%
% In case the objects in A should be interpreted as 1-dimensional object
% images, use  A = SETFEATSIZE(A,[1 GETFEATSIZE(A)]) for conversion.
