.TH dot 1 "April 1993" "Scilab Group" "Scilab Symbol"
.so ../sci.an
.SH NAME
dot (.) - symbol
.SH CALLING SEQUENCE
.nf
123.33
a.*b
[123,..
456]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.TP 6
.
Dot is used to mark decimal point for numbers : 3.25 and 0.001
.TP
.<op>
used in cunjunction with other operator symbols (* / \\ ^ ') to form
other operators. Element-by-element multiplicative operations are
obtained using .* , .^ , ./ , .\\ or .'. For example, C = A ./ B is
the matrix with elements c(i,j) = a(i,j)/b(i,j). Kronecker product is
noted .*. .
Note that when dot follows a number it is alway prt of the number so 2.*x is evaluated as 2.0*x and 2 .*x is evaluated as (2).*x
.TP
..
Continuation. Two or more decimal points at the end of
a line causes the following line to be a continuation.
.SH EXAMPLE

x=[1 2 3];x.^2 .*x // a space is required between 2 and dot
