<p>Hi all</p>
<p>In a text by Michael Baudin about Floating Points in Scilab:<br>
forge.scilab.org/index.php/p/docscifloat/downloads/get/floatingpoint_v0.1.pdf<br>
(David Goldberg is one of his references)<span style="color:

Here the special works of hypothenuses is further supported (page
43-44 onward).<br>
<br>
I wonder, does Scilab have the hypot function, similar to Matlab?
... Googling gives me no hits for Scilab but a page of hits with
Matlab. For example <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<p>P.S. Sorry for previously posting this question with a different
subject. Stray thoughts were later modified but the subject line
didn't have my attention.<br>
