Name

firstnonsingleton — Finds first dimension which is not 1

Calling Sequence

[dim]=firstnonsingleton(A[,opt])

Parameters

dim

first dimension of A which is not 1

A

a variable of any Scilab data type

opt

a character string giving the type of output we want

"num"

returned value is a numerical value

"str"

returned value is a character string if possible ("r" instead of 1 and "c" instead of 2)

Description

This function is used by mfile2sci to emulate Matlab behavior under Scilab, particularly for functions which treat the values along the first non-singleton dimension of A in Matlab while in Scilab they treat all values of A.

Examples


A = [1 2 3;4 5 6];
// Scilab max
M = max(A)
// Matlab max emulation
M = max(A,firstnonsingleton(A))
