Matlab setstr emulation function
Matlab setstr
and Scilab ascii
behave differently in some particular cases:
With character string input: Matlab setstr
returns a character string
while Scilab ascii
returns ASCII codes.
With double matrix input: Matlab setstr
returns a character matrix
having the same size as input while Scilab ascii
returns a single character string
The function mtlb_setstr(A)
is used by
mfile2sci
to replace setstr(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_setstr
calls:
If A
is a character string or a character string matrix
mtlb_setstr(A)
may be replaced by A
If A
is a double row vector
mtlb_setstr(A)
may be replaced by ascii(A)
