Hello all,

Nice implementation ! IMHO `double()` might also be extended to support a string,


The question is: What to do? With wich features?
It would be a nice replacement of strtod(). IMO, it should in no way duplicate it.

But is it really a priority?
There are already too many functions all doing rather the same thing, and rather weakly: strtod(), msscanf(), evstr() (and still eval().. whose removal is not yet merged <https://codereview.scilab.org/19797>).

However, there are certainly priorities in matter of string conversion. Noticeably,
currently, there is no way to read imaginary parts of complex numbers
as text, and convert them into numeric type.


csvTextScan() (another guy..) does it. It is definitely not emphasized in its description.
It has only a small not-illustrated example. But it does it.

Samuel
