How to write scripts for SciLab ?

[asjoshi]

Anybody using SciLab?

Hi,
Anybody have xp in SciLab which is free substitute for Matlab? I want to know how to write scripts for Scilab (Similar to .m files). Are the *.m files for Matlab fully compatible to SciLab?
Thanx in adv.

Not all 100% of m-files can be used in Scilab, several basic operations of scilab use symbols that different from MATLAB.
Anyway, why not considering Octave? It is also MATLAB clone but at least more activity (open-source) and seem to be more compatible (upto version 4).

Hi Here is an example
Most commands are matlab like.
pi is not defined.



prc.sci --- > .sci is the extension
-----------------------------------

clear

rin = 50;
cl = 100e-12;
cm = 2.7e-12;
lm = 3.3e-9;
pi = 3.14159; -->define pi
f = 1.57542e9;
w = 2*pi*f;

Z = 0+%i*w*lm + (((rin - %i*1/(w*cl))*(0.0 - %i*(1/(w*cm))) )/(rin - %i*(1/w)*(1/cl + 1/cm)))

%i --> indicates complex.

-----------
exec should be used

For more info let me know what is it you want to really write.
