Hello Eric,
In Scilab 5, you could write strings on multiple lines using ... but not
only, it worked with everything.
-->1..
-->2
ans =
12.
and more horrible
-->fun..
-->ction toto(..
-->)
-->disp("fu..
-->nction");
-->endf...
-->unction
-->toto()
function
In fact "..." are used to ignore the following end line.
I hope you can understand we want to remove this kind of coding style.
To replace ... for strings case can you use + operator.
-->"string1 and ...
-->string2"
become
-->"string1 and " + ...
-->"string2"
ans =
string1 and string2

Hello
Can someone explain me why in Scilab 6, you cannot wirte a string on
several lines each line ending by "..."?
When you have a very long string, you have 2 choices that are not
appealing:
- write this string on a line, which is not very readable;
- define several strings covering different components of the string
and then add them to build your string, which is a time consuming.
This change makes my productivity when programming in Scilab decline
and I do not see teh drawbacks that the old working entailed.
Thansk for your answer.
Regards
Éric
