// Extracts the default precision for the file .sci passed in input.
// The following annotation will be searched in the scilab code:
// //SCI2C: DEFAULT_PRECISION= FLOAT
// //SCI2C: DEFAULT_PRECISION= DOUBLE
// If the annotation is missing the default DOUBLE precision will be
// implicitly used.

// Output data:
// defaultprecision: string which specifies the default precision to be 
//                   used in the translation of scifilename.
