C: int info = pvm_pkbyte(char *cp,int nitem,int stride) int info = pvm_pkint(int *np,int nitem,int stride ) int info = pvm_pkdouble(double *dp,int nitem,int stride) M: info = pvm_pkbyte(array,stride) info = pvm_pkint(array,stride) info = pvm_pkdouble(array,stride)Currently, only routines for packing Byte, Integer and Double data types are implemented. In our opinion, packing of other data types can be established by using these three functions. The argument array specifies a MATLAB numerical array, where the argument stride works as the corresponding C function argument.
