Hi Ramine,
I can't grasp what is the difference between RELAY_f and SELECT_m in
Scicos. Could you explain me that?
Thank you,

Is there a way to distribute Scilab programs that will run, while
hiding the Scilab code? There are two reasons for this in my case: 1-
Making it more difficult to modify scilab code unintentionally by end
users, and 2- Potentially selling closed Scilab programs for profit.

How  can I multiply the result of two functions? The following is an

x=0:0.1:2*%pi;
y=sin(x) * cos(x);

Can someone tell me why this program doesn't work?  The first part

Hello guys!! I'm working in a project to develop one system to make

reproduce the same behaviour I had before, but every temptative to

Anybody knows when the latest version will be available as an Ubuntu
package?

Just a quick one - and apologies for a basic question. If you want to
demonstrate the basic calculus functions like: d/dx (sin(x) or integral
(sin(x), d/dx(2x+3x^2) etc  is there a quck function for these
indefinite tests?

how to save variables in scilab to a file which can be used by excel?
