rational(1)

NAME
"Scilab object : rationals" - rational in Scilab

DESCRIPTION
A rational r is a quotient of two polynomials r=num/den. The internal representation of a rational is a list. r=list('r',num,den,[]) is the same as r=num/den. A rational matrix can be defined with the usual syntax e.g. [r11,r12;r21,r22] is a 2x2 matrix where rij are 1x1 rationals. A rational matrix can also be defined as above as a list list('r',num,den,[]) with num and den polynomial matrices.

EXAMPLES
s=poly(0,'s');
W=[1/s,1/(s+1)]
W'*W
Num=[s,s+2;1,s];Den=[s*s,s;s,s*s];
list('r',Num,Den,[])
H=Num./Den
syslin('c',Num,Den)
syslin('c',H)
[Num1,Den1]=simp(Num,Den)
