M2SCI function
mtlb_double - Matlab double emulation function
Description
Matlab and Scilab
double
behave differently in some particular cases:
-
-
-
With character string input: Scilab
double
does not work with this type of input while Matlab
double
returns a matrix of ASCII codes.
-
With boolean input: Scilab
double
does not work with this type of input while Matlab
double
returns a matrix of double values.
The function
mtlb_double(A)
is used by
mfile2sci
to replace
double(A)
when it was not
possible to know what were theinput while porting Matlab code to Scilab. This function will
determine the correct semantic at run time. If you want to have a
more efficient code it is possible to replace
mtlb_double
calls:
-
-
-
If
A
is a character string,
mtlb_double(A)
may be replaced by
asciimat(A)
-
If
A
is a boolean matrix,
mtlb_double(A)
may be replaced by
bool2s(A)
-
If
A
is a double matrix,
mtlb_double(A)
may be replaced by
A
Caution:
mtlb_double
has not to be used for hand coded functions.
