Re: [Scilab-users] converting a variable name into a string

[Rafael Guerra]

Hi Christopher,

I do not know the Scilab equivalent but it would be interesting to know for 
what type of problem you need this feature.
The question seems puzzling at first sight, coz if we know the variable 's' 
name in order to be able to call f(s), then we should also be able to compose a 
string "s" by writing it within quotes, shouldn't we?

Regards,
Rafael

Subject: [Scilab-users] converting a variable name into a string

Ok here is another question for the Scilab experts around.
Is there a way to convert the name of a variable into a string in Scilab?

Lets say, I have:
//START OF CODE
s = 2;

//then:
string(s) // returns "2"
//is there a function f with f(s) == "s" ??
//END OF CODE


Searched the web, but could only find a solution for Matlab:
