Hello devs,
eye() builds a very specific object, of size [-1,-1].
In the Bugzilla report http://bugzilla.scilab.org/16060 ,
- I show that the added value of this specific object looks very
poor with respect
to the complexity and specific processing it requires in the
code.
- An idea is presented to replace eye() with a new predefined
constant
%eye = 1:0*$:1
as a true implicitlist object,
- and shows on some examples how it can easily work instead of
eye().
IMO, in order to simplify Scilab code without removing any
feature, the eye() syntax and object should be deprecated and
replaced.
Indeed, i think that setting negative sizes is a rather bad way to
encode such an object.
Looking forward to read you,
Regards
Samuel
PS: IMO we should take a special care about what we do with
implicitlist objects, how we use and make them evolving. They look
rather underexploited. So, anticipating other possible extended
usages would be wise.
