comp - scilab function compilation

### Calling Sequence

  `comp(function)`

### Parameters

- `function` : an not compiled scilab function (type 11)

### Description

`comp(function)` compiles the function `function` . Compiled and interpreted functions are equivalent but usually compiled functions are much faster. The functions provided in the standard libraries are compiled.

The online definition as well as the short syntax of the functions: `getf` and `deff` generate compiled function. So comp has to be used in very particular cases. To produce uncompiled function one must use `getf` or `deff` with option `"n"` .
