Follow-up Comment #4, bug #44745 (project octave): I agree it would be good to get confirmation on what Matlab's sprintf/fprintf does with invalid backslash escape sequences. What does Matlab produce with s = sprintf('\z') I looked through the manual and the backslash string escapes are not mentioned anywhere in the section "C-Style I/O Functions". They are documented elsewhere as a feature of double-quoted strings only. So I can understand the confusion if someone is not familiar with the printf family of functions and that this is a normal expected feature. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?44745> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
