# error_table

table of error messages

## Description

This page gives the table of the predefined error messages, and their associated error number. Some of these error messages are used by Scilab itself for parser errors or specific builtin errors. Some others are of a more general use and can be used in Scilab functions. The starred one are those for which the syntax `error(n,pos)` is handled.
