Follow-up Comment #1:

Thanks for taking the time to file a report, but this is not a bug, this is
normal floating point precision at work.

Compare the results with your definition


x = 0:.2:3;


and this one


x = [0:15] ./ 5;


And use this code to show the values of the elements that are not exactly what
you think they are:


[~, ~, y] = find (rem ([0:.2:3] .* 5, 1))


This is also documented in the manual:
