[scilab-Users] in16 matrix

[ron]

Thanks Stefan,
but this is not what I want to do. 
y=int16(X)
makes a copy of 'X' and converts to int16. The result is even more used memory.

I figured out in the meantime that I can create int16-matrices using the file read-Function mget:
A=mgeti(10000,'us',fd);
this implicitly creates the vector A with int16 values.
Doing this in a loop using 
A(:,i)=...
does what I want.

The intention was to make nice plots of the data, but as I see in the other responses here this will not always work on integers.
