Syntax
mode(k) k = mode()
Description
Used exclusively inside an
exec-file or a Scilab function mode(k)
allows to change
the information displayed during the execution, depending on the value of
k
:
- k = 0
The new variable values are displayed if required (see help on semicolon or comma).
- k = -1
The exec-file or Scilab function executes silently (this is the default value for Scilab functions).
- k = 2
It is the default value on Scilab prompt.
Please notices that
mode(2)
does not used at prompt, only in an exec-file or a Scilab function.- k = 1 or k = 3
Each line of instructions is echoed preceded of the prompt (if possible). The new variable values are displayed if required. This is the default for exec-files.
- k = 4 or k = 7
The new variable values are displayed if required, each line of instructions is echoed (if possible) and a prompt (>>) is issued after each line waiting for a carriage return.
If the carriage return follows character "p" the execution is paused (see pause).
- k > 7
User mode. If you define your own mode, it is recommended to use a value > 100.
By default, Scilab functions are executed using the silent ("-1") mode.
Functions in a function library are executed using "-1" mode.
Examples
// copy - paste in Scilab function example_mode(level_mode) mode(level_mode) a = 3 disp(mode()); endfunction mode(2) example_mode(0) example_mode(-1) example_mode(2) example_mode(1) example_mode(3) example_mode(7) mode(2)
