(=) assignment , comparison, equal sign

Description

Assignment:The equal sign = is used to denote the assignment of

value(s) to variable(s). The syntax can be :

  • a=expr where a is a variable name and expr a scilab expression which evaluates to a single result;
  • [a,b,...]=expr where a, b, ... are variable names and expr a scilab expression which results in as many results as given variable names.

: :Comparison: The equal sign = is also used in the comparison operators:

  • a==b denotes equality comparison between the values of the expressions a and b;
  • a~=b denotes inequality comparison between the values of the expressions a and b;
  • a<=b and a>=b denote ordering comparison between the values of the expressions a and b.

See comparison for semantic details. :

Examples

a = `sin`_(3.2)
M = [2.1,3.3,8.5;7.6,6.7,6.9;0,6.3,8.8];
[u,s] = `schur`_(M)
[1:10] == 4
1~=2
