Matlab sort emulation function
P = mtlb_sort(X) P = mtlb_sort(X,dim[,mode])
a scalar, vector, matrix of reals, booleans or a string
a positive scalar integer
a string ("ascend" or "descend")
Matlab sort
and Scilab gsort
behave
differently in some particular cases:
For a vector X
the Matlab
sort(X,'g','i')
function call is equivalent to the
Scilab gsort(X)
function call.
The value 1
(resp. 2
) of the Matlab
dim is equivalent to the Scilab "r"
flag (resp.
"c"
).
The Matlab "ascend"
(resp.
"descend"
) mode is equivalent to the Scilab
"i"
(resp. "d"
) flag.
The function mtlb_sort(X[,dim[,mode]])
is used by
mfile2sci
to replace sort(X[,dim[,mode]])
when
it was not possible to know what were the inputs while porting Matlab code
to Scilab. This function will determine the correct semantic at run time.
If you want to have a more efficient code it is possible to replace
mtlb_sort
call by gsort call.
