prettyprint

Converts a Scilab object into some corresponding LaTeX, TeX or MathML string(s)

Syntax

str = prettyprint(a)
str = prettyprint(a, exportFormat)
str = prettyprint(a, exportFormat, delim)
str = prettyprint(a, exportFormat, delim, processByElement)
str = prettyprint(a, exportFormat, delim, processByElement, isWrapped)

Arguments

a

is a Scilab variable

exportFormat

is the output format. Possible values are 'latex' (default), 'tex', or 'mathml'.

delimiter

is a string indicating the delimiter to bracket the whole resulting matrix. It's only used if processByElement is false. It can be '(' (default), '{', '[', '|', or '||'.

processByElement

is a boolean: If set to %f (default), the result str is a single single representing the whole input matrix. Otherwise, str has as many elements as the input matrix a.

isWrapped

is a boolean to indicate if the result must be wrapped inside delimiters ('$' for latex and tex or nothing for mathml) to be used with xstring or xtitle. The default value is %T (true).

str

a single string (if processByElement is %F), or a matrix of strings otherwise (with size(str)==size(a)): the representation of the input a.

Description

Taking a variable, the prettyprint function will provide a formatted representation of it. Formats can be TeX, LaTeX or MathML. They can be used in third party applications but also within Scilab with the most of the Scilab graphic features. The following types are handled by this function:

  • Real / Complex matrices

  • Polynomial types

  • Boolean

  • Integer

  • String

  • Tlist

  • Rational

  • Cell

Examples

str = prettyprint(rand(3,3)) // Return the LaTeX representation of a 3,3 matrix
xstring(0.2,0.2,str) // Show the representation in a graphic Windows

prettyprint(rand(3,4),"mathml") // Return the MathML representation of a 3,4 matrix
prettyprint(rand(3,4),"mathml","[") // Return the MathML representation of a 3,4 matrix with '[' as delimiter

s=poly(0,'s'); G=[1,s;1+s^2,3*s^3];
xstring(0.2,0.2,prettyprint(G*s-1)); // Show a polynomial through a LaTeX representation
