Re: [OctDev] strcmp problem in interp1

[David B. <Dav...@mo...>]

Ok, I take it back... Its not a bug in octave-forge, but should be
considered a bug in 2.1.59 as in matlab R12 I get

strcmp(NaN, 'test')

ans =3D

     0

>> strcmp(1,1)

ans =3D

     0


So numeric arguments are acceptable to matlab and always return
false...
