We conclude this chapter by noting that the function typeof
returns the type of the various Scilab objects. The following objects
are defined:
- usual for matrices with real or complex entries.
- polynomial for polynomial matrices: coefficients can be
real or complex.
- boolean for boolean matrices.
- character for matrices of character strings.
- function for functions.
- rational for rational matrices (syslin lists)
- state-space for linear systems in state-space
form (syslin lists).
- sparse for sparse constant matrices (real or complex)
- boolean sparse for sparse boolean matrices.
- list for ordinary lists.
- tlist for typed lists.
- mlist for matrix oriented typed lists.
- state-space (or rational) for syslin lists.
- library for library definition.
