[Scilab-Dev] Developement of scilab extension 'Scilab2C' to add support for scilab functions

[Clément David]

Hello Sidedhesh,

Thanks for trying this code generator, it need to be improved and more
interest on real use-case.

In my view, all the Scilab algorithm should be emitted as equivalent C
code to ease compactness and general usage of it. Even if re-using the
code in a library seems to be viable alternative, linking against
Scilab code might have some strong licensing restriction (google GPL vs
LGPL).

Do not hesitate to ask, if you need more info to go deeper into the
code.
