With the help of Petter Risholm, N-d arrays are beginning to work in
the CVS sources for Octave. The big thing that is left is making some
operators work, then I will be making a new snapshot.
Anther thing that needs some work is printing of N-d cell and
structure arrays. Since these data structures can be quite large, it
can take a significant amount of time and memory to generate the text
representation to display them. I'm not sure what is best. In
Matlab, I think structure arrays are always displayed something like
foo is an MxNxP structure array with the fields
a, b, c
and cell arrays are displayed as
foo =
[MxN double] [ MxN char]
[ 1] [MxN structure array]
or similar.
What should Octave do? Should we do the same, or offer an option that
would allow printing the full contents (perhaps up to some size
threshold)?
