mtlb_true — Matlab true emulation function
There is no Scilab equivalent for Matlab true
. However, Scilab ones
returns a result interpreted in an equivalent way for Scilab.
Matlab true
and Scilab ones
behave differently in some particular cases:
With a scalar input: Matlab true
returns a n x n matrix of ones
while Scilab ones
returns a 1.
The function mtlb_true(A)
is used by
mfile2sci
to replace true(A)
when it was not
possible to know what was the input 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_true
calls:
If A
is a scalar
mtlb_true(A)
may be replaced by ones(A,A)
If A
is not a scalar
mtlb_true(A)
may be replaced by ones(A)
Caution: mtlb_true
has not to be used for hand coded functions.
