Description

atomsLoad load one or more external modules.

Examples

// Get the list of installed BUT unloaded external modules:
p = setdiff(atomsGetInstalled(), atomsGetLoaded());

if p~=[] then
    // There is at least one installed BUT unloaded module
    // Let's load it
    atomsLoad(p(1))
    // Now, you may have a look to its help pages (in a fresh help browser session),
    // use its functions, use its demos (if any), etc.

else
    // There is no installed external module, or they are all already loaded.
    // Let's install a new module, and then load it in the session:

    // Get the list of available modules names
    load(SCI+"/modules/atoms/macros/atoms_internals/lib");
    P = atomsDESCRIPTIONget();
    clear atomsinternalslib
    available = fieldnames(P);

    notInstalled = setdiff(available, atomsGetInstalled()(:,1));
    module = notInstalled(1)
    versions = fieldnames(P(module))

    // Install the module: This requires an INTERNET CONNEXION
    atomsInstall([module, versions(1)])

    // Installing a module does not load it in the session:
    atomsIsLoaded(module)   // %F

    // Let's load it
    atomsLoad(module)       //
    atomsIsLoaded(module)   // %T

    // Now, you may have a look to its help pages (in a fresh help browser session),
    // use its functions, use its demos (if any), etc.

    // Now, uninstall it (cleaning):
    atomsRemove(module)
