scilab coding

Need to write a scilab code. Briefly describe the method of determining whether a set of vectors forms the basis for ‘n’ dimensional space or not. Then write a Scilab code to determine whether a set of user supplied vectors forms the basis for ‘n’ dimension. The code should interactively grab the users input, check for input accuracy of each of the vectors, and finally would declare whether the set is a basis or not. Comment the code adequately for clarity.
