Scilab Function
Last update : October 1995

stacksize - set scilab stack size

### Calling Sequence

  `stacksize(n)`
  `sz=stacksize()`

### Parameters

- `n`: integer, the required stack size given in number of double precision words
- `sz`: 2-vector [total used]

### Description

Scilab stores "usual" variables in a stack `stk` (for global variables see `gstacksize`).

`stacksize(n)` allows the user to increase or decrease the size of this stack. The maximum allowed size depends on the amount of free memory and swap space available at the time.

This function with the `n` argument can now be used everywhere.

`sz=stacksize()` returns a 2-vector which contains the current total and used stack size. It can be used everywhere.
