How to have multiple variable function work with vectors -
i'm having trouble dealing scilab functions ; have output in form of 1x6 vector, , i'd have simple way make work 6 variable function. v = [1,2,3,4,5,6] ; function z=f(a,b,c,d,e,f) ... endfunction f(v) //returns error thank scilab doesn't have direct analogue of python's fcn(*v) function call interpret entries of v multiple arguments. if want able call function either fcn(1,2,3,4,5,6) or v = 1:6; fcn(v) , you'll need add clause beginning: function z=fcn(a,b,c,d,e,f) if argn(2)==1 [a,b,c,d,e,f] = (a(1),a(2),a(3),a(4),a(5),a(6)) end // rest of function z = a+b+c+d+e+f endfunction now v=1:6; fcn(v) returns 21, fcn(1,2,3,4,5,6) does. the condition argn(2)==1 checks if function received 1 parameter instead of expected 6; if case, assumes vector. if vector doesn't have enough elements (6) tuple assignment, error thrown.
