[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60482] hist() misses error for non-numeric input

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #60482 (project octave):

Please comment on this conceptual approach:


if (nargout > 1) # output argument specified
  if (nargin == 2) # should be only data and bins
    if ( !isnumeric (arg2)) # invalid data type
      error ("second argument should be numeric when seeking a return
value.")
    end
  end
end


Hopefully this can avoid having to check against a big list of keywords, which
would need to be maintained with a lot of effort.
