Description
Matlab and Scilab tril behave differently in some particular cases:
With complex input: Matlab
trilcan be used with complex data but not Scilab one.With character strings inputs: due to the fact the Matlab and Scilab do not consider character strings in the same way, Scilab and Matlab
trildo not give the same results for this type of input.With boolean inputs: Matlab
trilcan be used with boobean data but not Scilab one.
The function mtlb_tril(x,k) is used by
mfile2sci to replace tril(x,k) 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_tril calls:
If
Xcontains real double valuesmtlb_tril(x,k)may be replaced bytril(x,k)If
Xcontains boolean valuesmtlb_tril(x,k)may be replaced bytril(bool2s(x),k)
 | Caution: mtlb_tril has not to be used for hand coded functions. |
