This is probably in an FAQ somewhere but ..... Is there a tool out there for translating Matlab to Numeric? I found a 1999 posting by Travis asking the same thing! It doesn't seem like it would be all THAT difficult to write. Mathew

I'm porting by hand. It does not seem easy to me. And even if it were easy, both Matlab and NumPy are moving targets. So it would difficult to maintain.

Ah. Do I detect a dare? Could start first by using Octaves matlab parser.

If people could post lines of Matlab code and proposed numpy could, we could try some regexp's that could do some of this. Ryan On 6/23/06, Keith Goodman <kwgoodman@gmail.com> wrote:

Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

One possible starting point for this would be Chris Stawarz's i2py translator which attempts to do this for IDL <http://software.pseudogreen.org/i2py/>. It might be possible to build on this by getting it working for current numpy. The production rules for MATLAB might be gleaned from Octave. Gary R. Mathew Yeates wrote:

Let's just say that anyone coming to this list saying something like, "It doesn't seem like it would be all THAT difficult to write," gets an automatic, "Show me," from me. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
Let's just let those who want to try to do that and give our support? I would be happy if I could some parts of my old matlab programs translated to Scipy. On 6/24/06, Robert Kern <robert.kern@gmail.com> wrote:

I do believe that, "Show me," is an *encouragement*. I am explicitly encouraging Mathew to work towards that end. Sheesh. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
A couple of months ago I started something similar but unfortunately it has since stagnated. Its located at pym.python-hosting.com. With the exception of a commit a few weeks ago I haven't touched it for 4 months. That being said I havn't completly abandoned it and the basic foundation is there, all that remains is most of the language rules. I left it halfway through implementing language precedence according to http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/matlab_prog/f0-38155.h.... Mark.

I've been looking at a project called ANTLR (www.antlr.org) to do the translation. Unfortunately, although I may have a Matlab grammar, it would still be a lot of work to use ANTLR. I'll look at some of the links that have posted. Mathew Robert Kern wrote:

ANTLR was also used for GDL http://gnudatalanguage.sourceforge.net/ with amazing results. Erin On 6/28/06, Mathew Yeates <myeates@jpl.nasa.gov> wrote:
