Chapter 4. Unknown Spots
Now that we have defined all operand type codes, we can turn to the operator type codes.
Table 4-3. Operator type codes
Caution
Several operators listed in Table 4-3 behave specially! Some, like equality and
inequality tests, are auto-overloaded, i.e. are available even before the user
defines her replacement function. Others cannot be overloaded at all, like
unary plus (all types), and insertion/extraction (tlists).
Warning
There is a mistake in the SCI/doc/Intro.ps concerning this operator. The
first table in Sec. 3.3, page 64 states that code b defines the row-separator “;”.
SCI/doc/Intro.ps is wrong here, but the online help is correct in that the
row-seperator “;” is overloaded with the code f.
Warning
The online-help of Scilab-2.5, help overloading, is incorrect, and
SCI/doc/Intro.ps is correct. u is associated with “*.”, and x with “.*”.
Operator Code Note

conjugate)
