[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #61199] Allow 'char' input sets to nchoosek for Matlab compatibility

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #19, bug #61199 (project octave):

Hello,

I made some changes to the binomil coefficient calculation part of nchoosek so
that it returns exact integers all the way to flintmax and optionally up to
2^64‐1. Could someone verify if nchoosek (54,27) and nchoosek (56,28) give
warnings of loss of precision in Matlab please? Is there is interest in
extending the range of exactness for Octave or is it a Matlab compatibility
issue?
