[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #65261] inconsistent index

[John W. Eaton]

Update of bug#65261 (group octave):

                Category: Coding Style and Maintenance => Octave Function     
  
              Item Group:        Incorrect Result => Documentation

Follow-up Comment #1:

The way this works in Octave is required for compatibility with documented
Matlab behavior.

Octave's documentation for the size function covers the case of the number of
DIM arguments is less than the number of dimensions of the array, but not the
case of the number of DIM arguments greater than the number of dimensions of
the array.  That should be fixed.

If you want to work with an N-dimensional empty array with all zero
dimensions, try starting with something like "zeros (0, 0, 0)" or "zeros
(zeros (1, N))" instead of [].
