[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49192] dec2bin function does not behave the same as Matlab

[Kai Torben Ohlhus]

Update of bug #49192 (project octave):

                Priority:              5 - Normal => 3 - Low                
              Item Group:    Matlab Compatibility => WTF, Matlab?!?         
                  Status:                    None => Wont Fix               
                 Release:                   4.0.2 => 4.2.0-rc2              
        Operating System:       Microsoft Windows => Any

Follow-up Comment #1:

I would throw this bug report back to The Mathworks, e.g. in Matlab R2016a I
get:


>> dec2bin (0, 0)

ans =

   Empty matrix: 1-by-0


>> dec2hex (0, 0)
Error using reshape
To RESHAPE the number of elements must not change.

Error in dec2hex (line 59)
h = reshape(h,n0,numD)';
 
>> dec2base (0, 2, 0)

ans =

0

>> dec2base (0, 16, 0)

ans =

0


Here Octave looks more consistend, as it uses only dec2base in any case:


>> dec2bin (0, 0)
ans = 0
>> dec2hex (0, 0)
ans = 0
>> dec2base (0, 2, 0)
ans = 0
>> dec2base (0, 16, 0)
ans = 0
