mtlb_echo — Matlab echo emulation function
There is no equivalent for Matlab echo
in Scilab but some cases can be replaced by calls to Scilab mode
:
echo
: is equivalent to Scilab mode(abs(mode()-1))
for scripts and non-compiled functions
echo on
: is equivalent to Scilab mode(1)
for scripts and non-compiled functions
echo off
: is equivalent to Scilab mode(0)
The function mtlb_echo(arg1[,arg2])
is used by
mfile2sci
to replace echo arg1 [arg2]
when it was not
possible to know what were the inputs 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_echo
calls:
If arg1
is equal to "on"
mtlb_echo(arg1)
may be replaced by mode(1)
If arg1
is equal to "off"
mtlb_echo(arg1)
may be replaced by mode(0)
Caution: mtlb_echo
has not to be used for hand coded functions.
