Examples for support purposes...

Playing around a little with SciLab in SageMathCloud. Following [Scilab for very beginners](file:///Users/wstein/Downloads/Scilab_beginners.pdf).

Note: there are currently annoying control codes in the output, when you use "%scilab".

Note: If you make a command-line terminal on SageMathCloud and just type scilab it fails, but if you type scilab -nw it works.

scilab('4+5')

9.
%scilab

4+5

  ans = 9.
%default_mode scilab

 57/4

  ans = 14.25
(2+9)^5

  ans = 161051.
2+3.4

  ans = 5.4
sqrt(9)

  ans = 3.

We can't just write %e as in the tutorial, since that is SMC's notation to switch to a different mode for the cell.

%scilab
%e

  %e = 2.7182818
2+3*%i

  ans = 2. + 3.i
(1+sqrt(5))/2

  ans = 1.618034
exp(10)/factorial(10)

  ans = 0.0060699
a

  !--error 4 Undefined variable: a
a=%pi/4

  a = 0.7853982
a

  a = 0.7853982
function d=dollars(e,t);
d=e*t;
endfunction

 
dollars(200,1.4)

  ans = 280.
function y=f(x);
y=36/(8+exp(-x));
endfunction

 
function y=g(x);
y=4*x/9+4;
endfunction

 
f(10)

  ans = 4.4999745
g(12.5)

  ans = 9.5555556
v=[3;-2;5]

  v = 3. - 2. 5.
m=[1 2 3;4 5 6;7 8 9]

  m = 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
m*m

  ans = 30. 36. 42. 66. 81. 96. 102. 126. 150.
3:10

  ans = 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
1:2:10

  ans = 1. 3. 5. 7. 9.

I don't think SMC has automatic support for scilab plots. If there were interest, it would probably be easy to implement.

plot(1,2,".r")

 

But you can display plots anyways as follows:

%sage
def show_plot():
scilab.eval("xs2svg(gcf(),'/tmp/scilab.svg')"); salvus.file("/tmp/scilab.svg")

%sage show_plot()

plot([1,3],[2,5])

 
%sage show_plot()

function y=f(x)
y=(x^2+2*x)*exp(-x)
endfunction
x=linspace(-2,5,50);
plot(x,f)

 Warning : redefining function: f . Use funcprot(0) to avoid this message  
%sage show_plot()

clf
X=[1,2,5];n1=[5,10,5];n2=[6,8,7];
bar(X,[n1',n2'])

   
%sage show_plot()
