Scicos function

scicosim - Scicos simulation function

### Sequence d'appel

  `[state,t]=scicosim(state,0,tf,sim,'start' [,tol])`
  `[state,t]=scicosim(state,tcur,tf,sim,'run' [,tol])`
  `[state,t]=scicosim(state,tcur,tf,sim,'finish' [,tol])`

### Parametres

- `state` : Scilab `tlist` contains scicosim initial state. Usually generated by Scicos `Compile` or `Run` menus (see scicos_cpr for more details).
- `tcur` : initial simulation time
- `tf` : final simulation time (Unused with options `'start'` and `'finish'`
- `sim` : Scilab `tlist`. Usually generated by Scicos `Compile` menu (see scicos_cpr for more details).
- `tol` : 4 vector `[atol,rtol,ttol,deltat]` where `atol`, `rtol` are respectively the absolute and relative tolerances for ode solver (see ode), `ttol` is the precision on event dates. `deltat` is maximum integration interval for each call to ode solver.
- `t` : final reached time

### Description

Simulator for Scicos compiled diagram. Usually `scicosim` is called by `scicos` to perform simulation of a diagram.

But `scicosim` may also be called outside Scicos. Typical usage in such a case may be:

- 1 Use Scicos to define a block diagram, compile it.
- 2 Save the compiled diagram using `Save,SaveAs` Scicos menus .
- 3 In Scilab, load saved file using `load` function. You get variables `scicos_ver`, `scs_m`, `cpr`

`scs_m` is the diagram Scicos main data structure.

`cpr` is the data structure `list(state,sim,cor,corinv)` if the diagram had been compiled before saved, else `cpr=list()`

- 4 Extract `state`, `sim` out of `cpr`
- 5 Execute `[state,t]=scicosim(state,0,tf,sim,'start' [,tolerances])` for initialisation.
- 6 Execute `[state,t]=scicosim(state,0,tf,sim,'run' [,tolerances])` for simulation from `0` to `tf`. Many successives such calls may be performed changing initial and final time.
- 7 Execute `[state,t]=scicosim(state,0,tf,sim,'finish' [,tolerances])` at the very end of the simulation to close files,... For advanced user it is possible to "manually" change some parameters or state values
