2.2 Simulation

A completed diagram can be simulated using Run in the Simulate menu. Selecting this button results in a compilation of the diagram (if not already compiled) and simulation. The simulation can be stopped by clicking on the stop button on top of the Scicos main window.

A compiled Scicos diagram, saved as a *.cos file, does not need compilation the next time it is loaded; the saved file contains, the result of the compilation. It is also possible to extract just the data needed to do simulation, and do the simulation without having to enter the Scicos environment. This can be done using the scicosim function.
