[Eeglablist] pop_saveset saves file as single precision rather than double

[Tyler Grummett]

Hey eeglabers,


I just have a quick question: Why does pop_saveset save files as single precision instead of double precision, as requested in eeg_options. The code that is likely responsible for this is:


if ~strcmpi(class(EEG.data), 'memmapdata') && ~strcmpi(class(EEG.data), 'mmo') && ~strcmpi(class(EEG.data), 'single')
        tmpdata       = single(reshape(EEG.data, EEG.nbchan,  EEG.pnts*EEG.trials));
    else
        tmpdata = EEG.data;
    end;


Is this to save space? Is there a possibility of an edit which reads from the options file to determine which precision it should save the data out in?


Regards,

Tyler
