Julia Nelson types

Managing Data between Julia and Nelson.

Description

Managing data returned by Julia functions:

This documentation explains how data is managed and converted between Julia and Nelson. It covers scalar, vector, and matrix conversions, examples of usage, and related resources.

Julia return type, as shown in Julia	Corresponding Nelson type (scalar)
Bool	logical
Complex{Float64}	double (complex)
Complex{Float32}	single (complex)
Float64	double
Float32	single
Int8	int8
Int16	int16
Int32	int32
Int64	int64
UInt8	uint8
UInt16	uint16
UInt32	uint32
UInt64	uint64
String	string

Vector and Matrix of Nelson type returned as matrix in Julia.

cell converted to Array{Any}.

struct converted to Dict{Any, Any}.

matrix of struct converted to Matrix{Dict}.

dictionary converted to Dict{Any, Any}.

Ensure that all data passed between Julia and Nelson adheres to the type mappings described above for smooth conversions.

For advanced use cases, such as handling custom Julia types or deeply nested data structures, additional preprocessing in Julia or Nelson may be required.

Examples

R = jlrun('', "A", 'A', magic(3))
R.double()

names = ["Unicycle" "Bicycle" "Tricycle"];
wheels = [1 2 3];
d = dictionary(wheels,names)
R = jlrun('', "A", 'A', d)
