Re: differences matlab vs octave

[Tom Holroyd]

Also:

In Matlab, single & and | shortcut in if statements, but not in 
Octave, where you must use && and || to get the shortcut 
behavior.

(This one really falls into the category of a "bug" in Matlab, 
but there is enough Matlab code out there like
        if isfield(cfg, 'method') & strcmp(cfg.method, 'moo')
that it warrants mentioning.)
