Reference guides are available for functions and commands supported by OML, Tcl, and Python.
OpenMatrix is a mathematical scripting language.
Strings are arrays of characters.
Strings in OpenMatrix are encoded using UTF-8 encoding.
Discover new features and enhancements.
Discover Compose, including its language support and system requirements.
The Compose tutorials and associated example model files help introduce you to the basic functionality of the software.
Provides detailed information regarding the features and functionality available in Compose.
Literals are items that are constant throughout the life of the application. Literals include numeric, imaginary, characters, strings, logicals, and Other (NaN/Inf).
Data types are items that are constant throughout the life of the application and are built into the OpenMatrix language.
Strings are actually arrays of characters. As such, they can be manipulated as vector/matrices.
OML language scripts manipulate data through variables. Variables are referred to by their name (alphanumeric) and can be created (assigned) and deleted as described in this section.
Indexing is used to retrieve one or more specific values out of a collection.
Operators are used to combine operands.
Each operator in this section is explained with the operations of scalars, vectors, and matrices that are allowed for said operator.
Statements are made of expressions and may be a simple expression or a more complex variety of expressions.
Loops are used to perform the same set of statements multiple times.
There are two types of workspaces: Local and Global.
Functions are packets of statements that can be used repeatedly.
OpenMatrix statements persist in .oml files.
This section describes files that can be manipulated by the OpenMatrix Language.
Errors and warning messages are both output in the console (or the Command Window in GUI mode) of Compose.
Objects in OML are defined using the classdef keyword. This creates a blueprint for an object but does not actually create (instantiate) anything.
The Reference Guide contains documentation for all functions supported in the OpenMatrix language.
