472 |
| 10118 | 473 ** The `lookup' function was extended to be more useful for |
| 474 general-purpose binary searching. Using this improvement, the | |
| 475 ismember function was rewritten for significantly better | |
| 476 performance. | |
| 9352 | 477 |
| 478 ** Real, integer and logical matrices, when used in indexing, will now | |
| 479 cache the internal index_vector value (zero-based indices) when | |
| 480 successfully used as indices, eliminating the conversion penalty for | |
| 10118 | 481 subsequent indexing by the same matrix. In particular, this means it |
| 482 is no longer needed to avoid repeated indexing by logical arrays | |
| 483 using find for performance reasons. | |
| 9888 | 484 |
| 10118 | 485 ** Logical matrices are now treated more efficiently when used as |
| 486 indices. Octave will keep the index as a logical mask unless the | |
| 487 ratio of true elements is small enough, using a specialized | |
| 488 code. Previously, all logical matrices were always first converted | |
| 489 to index vectors. This results in savings in both memory and | |
| 490 computing time. | |
| 9480 | 491 |
| 10118 | 492 ** The `sub2ind' and `ind2sub' functions were reimplemented as compiled |
| 493 functions for better performance. These functions are now faster, | |
| 494 can deliver more economized results for ranges, and can reuse the | |
| 495 index cache mechanism described in previous paragraph. | |
| 496 | |
| 497 ** The built-in function equivalents to associative operators (`plus', | |
| 498 `times', `mtimes', `and', and `or') have been extended to accept | |
| 499 multiple arguments. This is especially useful for summing | |
| 500 (multiplying, etc.) lists of objects (of possibly distinct types): | |
| 9408 | 501 |
| 9449 | 502 matrix_sum = plus (matrix_list{:}); |
| 503 | |
| 10118 | 504 ** An FTP object type based on libcurl has been implemented. These |
| 505 objects allow ftp connections, downloads and uploads to be | |
| 506 managed. For example, | |
| 9880 | 507 |
| 10118 | 508 fp = ftp ("ftp.octave.org); |
| 509 cd (fp, "gnu/octave"); | |
| 510 mget (fp, "octave-3.2.3.tar.bz2"); | |
| 511 close (fp); | |
| 9880 | 512 |
| 10118 | 513 ** The default behavior of `assert (observed, expected)' has been |
| 514 relaxed to employ less strict checking that does not require the | |
| 515 internals of the values to match. This avoids previously valid | |
| 516 tests from breaking due to new internal classes introduced in future | |
| 517 Octave versions. | |
| 9449 | 518 |
| 519 For instance, all of these assertions were true in Octave 3.0.x | |
| 520 but false in 3.2.x due to new optimizations and improvements: | |
| 521 | |
| 522 assert (2*linspace (1, 5, 5), 2*(1:5)) | |
| 523 assert (zeros (0, 0), []) | |
| 524 assert (2*ones (1, 5), (2) (ones (1,5))) | |
| 9462 | 525 |
| 10118 | 526 ** The behavior of library functions `ismatrix', `issquare', and |
| 527 `issymmetric' has been changed for better consistency. | |
| 9873 | 528 |
| 10292 | 529 * The `ismatrix' function now returns true for all numeric, |

530 logical and character 2-D or N-D matrices. Previously, `ismatrix' |
| 10292 | 531 returned false if the first or second dimension was zero. |
| 532 Hence, `ismatrix ([])' was false, | |
| 533 while `ismatrix (zeros (1,2,0))' was true. | |
| 9873 | 534 |
| 10118 | 535 * The `issquare' function now returns a logical scalar, and is |
| 536 equivalent to the expression | |
| 537 | |
| 538 ismatrix (x) && ndims (x) == 2 && rows (x) == columns (x) | |
| 539 | |
| 540 The dimension is no longer returned. As a result, `issquare ([])' | |
| 541 now yields true. | |
| 9873 | 542 |
| 10118 | 543 * The `issymmetric' function now checks for symmetry instead of |

544 Hermitianness. For the latter, ishermitian was created. Also, |
| 10118 | 545 logical scalar is returned rather than the dimension, so |
| 546 `issymmetric ([])' is now true. | |
| 9873 | 547 |
| 10118 | 548 ** Function handles are now aware of overloaded functions. If a |
| 549 function is overloaded, the handle determines at the time of its | |
| 550 reference which function to call. A non-overloaded version does not | |
| 551 need to exist. | |
| 9873 | 552 |
| 10118 | 553 ** Overloading functions for built-in classes (double, int8, cell, |
| 554 etc.) is now compatible with Matlab. | |
| 9408 | 555 |
| 10323 | 556 ** Function handles can now be compared with the == and != operators, |
| 557 as well as the `isequal' function. | |
| 558 | |
| 10118 | 559 ** Performance of concatenation (using []) and the functions `cat', |
| 560 `horzcat', and `vertcat' has been improved for multidimensional | |
| 561 arrays. | |
| 10117 | 562 |
| 9547 | 563 ** The operation-assignment operators +=, -=, *= and /= now behave more |
| 10118 | 564 efficiently in certain cases. For instance, if M is a matrix and S a |
| 565 scalar, then the statement | |
| 9547 | 566 |
| 10118 | 567 M += S; |
| 9547 | 568 |
| 10118 | 569 will operate on M's data in-place if it is not shared by another |
| 570 variable, usually increasing both time and memory efficiency. | |
| 9547 | 571 |
| 9558 | 572 Only selected common combinations are affected, namely: |
| 9547 | 573 |
| 574 matrix += matrix | |
| 575 matrix -= matrix | |
| 9558 | 576 matrix .*= matrix |
| 577 matrix ./= matrix | |
| 578 | |
| 9547 | 579 matrix += scalar |
| 580 matrix -= scalar | |
| 581 matrix *= scalar | |
| 582 matrix /= scalar | |
| 9558 | 583 |
| 9552 | 584 logical matrix |= logical matrix |
| 585 logical matrix &= logical matrix | |
| 9547 | 586 |
| 10118 | 587 where matrix and scalar belong to the same class. The left-hand |
| 588 side must be a simple variable reference. | |
| 9888 | 589 |
| 10118 | 590 Moreover, when unary operators occur in expressions, Octave will |
| 591 also try to do the operation in-place if it's argument is a | |

592 temporary expression. |
| 9589 | 593 |
| 10118 | 594 ** The effect of comparison operators (<, >, <=, and >=) applied to |
| 595 complex numbers has changed to be consistent with the strict | |
| 596 ordering defined by the `max', `min', and `sort' functions. More | |
| 597 specifically, complex numbers are compared by lexicographical | |
| 598 comparison of the pairs `[abs(z), arg(z)]'. Previously, only real | |
| 14188 | 599 parts were compared; this can be trivially achieved by converting |
| 600 the operands to real values with the `real' function. | |
| 9547 | 601 |
| 10118 | 602 ** The automatic simplification of complex computation results has |
| 603 changed. Octave will now simplify any complex number with a zero | |
| 604 imaginary part or any complex matrix with all elements having zero | |
| 605 imaginary part to a real value. Previously, this was done only for | |
| 606 positive zeros. Note that the behavior of the complex function is | |
| 607 unchanged and it still produces a complex value even if the | |
| 608 imaginary part is zero. | |
| 9826 | 609 |
| 10118 | 610 ** As a side effect of code refactoring in liboctave, the binary |
| 611 logical operations are now more easily amenable to compiler | |
| 612 optimizations and are thus significantly faster. | |
| 9595 | 613 |
| 10118 | 614 ** Octave now allows user-defined `subsasgn' methods to optimize out |
| 615 redundant copies. For more information, see the manual. | |
| 9595 | 616 |

| 10118 | 618 handle the expressions |

622 V / M |
| 9664 | 623 |
| 10118 | 624 (M is a matrix and V is a vector) more efficiently in certain cases. |
| 625 In particular, if M is triangular, all three expressions will be | |
| 626 handled by a single call to xTRTRS (from LAPACK), with appropriate | |
| 10453 | 627 flags. Previously, all three expressions required a physical |
| 10118 | 628 transpose of M. |
| 9664 | 629 |
| 10118 | 630 ** More efficient handling of certain mixed real-complex matrix |
| 631 operations. For instance, if RM is a real matrix and CM a complex | |
| 632 matrix, | |
| 9664 | 633 |
| 10118 | 634 RM * CM |
| 9664 | 635 |
| 636 can now be evaluated either as | |
| 637 | |
| 638 complex (RM * real (CM), RM * imag (CM)) | |
| 639 | |
| 640 or as | |
| 641 | |
| 642 complex (RM) * CM, | |
| 643 | |
| 10453 | 644 depending on the dimensions. The first form requires more |
| 645 temporaries and copying, but halves the FLOP count, which normally | |
| 646 brings better performance if RM has enough rows. Previously, the | |
| 647 second form was always used. | |
| 9664 | 648 |
| 11111 | 649 Matrix division is similarly affected. |
| 9664 | 650 |
| 10118 | 651 ** More efficient handling of triangular matrix factors returned from |
| 652 factorizations. The functions for computing QR, LU and Cholesky | |
| 653 factorizations will now automatically return the triangular matrix | |
| 654 factors with proper internal matrix_type set, so that it won't need | |
| 655 to be computed when the matrix is used for division. | |
| 9717 | 656 |
| 10118 | 657 ** The built-in `sum' function now handles the non-native summation |
| 658 (i.e., double precision sum of single or integer inputs) more | |
| 659 efficiently, avoiding a temporary conversion of the whole input | |
| 660 array to doubles. Further, `sum' can now accept an extra option | |
| 661 argument, using a compensated summation algorithm rather than a | |
| 662 straightforward sum, which significantly improves precision if lots | |
| 663 of cancellation occurs in the summation. | |
| 9717 | 664 |
| 10118 | 665 ** The built-in `bsxfun' function now uses optimized code for certain |
| 666 cases where built-in operator handles are passed in. Namely, the | |
| 667 optimizations concern the operators `plus', `minus', `times', | |
| 668 `ldivide', `rdivide', `power', `and', `or' (for logical arrays), | |
| 669 the relational operators `eq', `ne', `lt', `le', `gt', `ge', and the | |
| 670 functions `min' and `max'. Optimizations only apply when both | |
| 671 operands are of the same built-in class. Mixed real/complex and | |
| 672 single/double operations will first convert both operands to a | |
| 673 common type. | |
| 9745 | 674 |
| 10118 | 675 ** The `strfind' and `strrep' functions now have compiled |
| 676 implementations, facilitating significantly more efficient searching | |
| 677 and replacing in strings, especially with longer patterns. The code | |
| 678 of `strcat' has been vectorized and is now much more efficient when | |
| 679 many strings are concatenated. The `strcmpi' and `strncmpi' | |
| 680 functions are now built-in functions, providing better performance. | |

| 690 For more details, consult the manual. | |
| 10886 | 691 |

| 702 Octave:int-convert-non-int-val, Octave:int-convert-overflow, | |

| 10453 | 705 ** rem and mod are now built-in functions. They also handle integer |
| 706 types efficiently using integer arithmetic. | |
| 10437 | 707 |
| 10536 | 708 ** Sparse indexing and indexed assignment has been mostly rewritten. |
| 709 Since Octave uses compressed column storage for sparse matrices, | |
| 710 major attention is devoted to operations manipulating whole columns. | |
| 711 Such operations are now significantly faster, as well as some other | |
| 712 important cases. | |
| 713 | |
| 714 Further, it is now possible to pre-allocate a sparse matrix and | |
| 715 subsequently fill it by assignments, provided they meet certain | |
| 716 conditions. For more information, consult the `spalloc' function, | |
| 717 which is no longer a mere dummy. Consequently, nzmax and nnz are no | |
| 11111 | 718 longer always equal in Octave. Octave may also produce a matrix |
| 719 with nnz < nzmax as a result of other operations, so you should | |

720 consistently use nnz unless you really want to use nzmax (i.e., the |
| 11111 | 721 space allocated for nonzero elements). |
| 10536 | 722 |
| 723 Sparse concatenation is also affected, and concatenating sparse | |
| 724 matrices, especially larger collections, is now significantly more | |
| 11111 | 725 efficient. This applies to both the [] operator and the |
| 10536 | 726 cat/vertcat/horzcat functions. |
| 727 | |
| 11111 | 728 ** It is now possible to optionally employ the xGESDD LAPACK drivers |
| 14188 | 729 for computing the singular value decomposition using svd, instead |
| 11111 | 730 of the default xGESVD, using the configuration pseudo-variable |
| 731 svd_driver. The xGESDD driver can be up to 6x times faster when | |
| 732 singular vectors are requested, but is reported to be somewhat less | |
| 10639 | 733 robust on highly ill-conditioned matrices. |
| 734 | |
| 735 ** Configuration pseudo-variables, such as page_screen_output or | |
| 736 confirm_recursive_rmdir (or the above mentioned svd_driver), now | |
| 737 accept a "local" option as second argument, requesting the change | |

951 __gnuplot_show__, __gnuplot_replot__, __gnuplot_splot__, |
| 8737 | 952 __gnuplot_save_data__ and __gnuplot_send_inline_data__ have been |
| 953 removed from Octave. These function were incompatible with the | |
| 954 high level graphics handle code. | |
| 6329 | 955 |
| 8885 | 956 ** The Control, Finance and Quaternion functions have been removed. |
| 957 | |
| 958 These functions are now available as separate packages from | |
| 959 | |
| 960 http://octave.sourceforge.net/packages.html | |
| 961 | |
| 962 and can be reinstalled using the Octave package manager (see | |
| 963 the pkg function). | |
| 964 | |
| 965 ** Specific sparse matrix functions removed. | |
| 966 | |
| 967 The following functions, which handled only sparse matrices have | |
| 968 been removed. Instead of calling these functions directly, you | |
| 969 should use the corresponding function without the "sp" prefix. | |

| 977 ** Improvements to the debugger. | |
| 978 | |
| 979 The interactive debugging features have been improved. Stopping | |
| 980 on statements with dbstop should work correctly now. Stepping | |
| 981 into and over functions, and stepping one statement at a time | |

| 984 to print the current function call stack. The new dbquit function | |
| 985 is available to exit the debugging mode. | |
| 986 | |
| 987 ** Improved traceback error messages. | |
| 988 | |
| 989 Traceback error messages are much more concise and easier to | |
| 990 understand. They now display information about the function call | |
| 991 stack instead of the stack of all statements that were active at | |
| 992 the point of the error. | |

995 |
| 8737 | 996 Octave now includes OOP features and the user can create their own |
| 997 class objects and overloaded functions and operators. For | |
| 998 example, all methods of a class called "myclass" will be found in | |
| 999 a directory "@myclass" on the users path. The class specific | |
| 1000 versions of functions and operators take precedence over the | |
| 1001 generic versions of these functions. | |
| 1002 | |
| 1003 New functions related to OOP include | |
| 7189 | 1004 |
| 8737 | 1005 class inferiorto isobject loadobj methods superiorto |
| 1006 | |
| 1007 See the Octave manual for more details. | |
| 7038 | 1008 |
| 8747 | 1009 ** Parsing of Command-style Functions. |
| 1010 | |
| 1011 Octave now parses command-style functions without needing to first | |
| 1012 declare them with "mark_as_command". The rules for recognizing a | |
| 1013 command-style function calls are | |
| 1014 | |
| 1015 * A command must appear as the first word in a statement, | |
| 1016 followed by a space. | |
| 1017 | |
| 1018 * The first character after the space must not be '=' or '(' | |
| 1019 | |
| 1020 * The next token after the space must not look like a binary | |
| 1021 operator. | |
| 1022 | |
| 1023 These rules should be mostly compatible with the way Matlab parses | |
| 1024 command-style function calls and allow users to define commands in | |
| 1025 .m files without having to mark them as commands. | |
| 1026 | |
| 1027 Note that previous versions of Octave allowed expressions like | |
| 1028 | |
| 1029 x = load -text foo.dat | |
| 1030 | |
| 1031 but an expression like this will now generate a parse error. In | |
| 1032 order to assign the value returned by a function to a variable, | |
| 1033 you must use the normal function call syntax: | |
| 1034 | |
| 1035 x = load ("-text", "foo.dat"); | |
| 1036 | |
| 8737 | 1037 ** Block comments. |
| 1038 | |
| 8747 | 1039 Commented code can be between matching "#{" and "#}" or "%{" and |
| 1040 "%}" markers, even if the commented code spans several line. This | |
| 1041 allows blocks code to be commented, without needing to comment | |
| 1042 each line. For example, | |
| 5814 | 1043 |
| 8747 | 1044 function [s, t] = func (x, y) |
| 1045 s = 2 * x; | |
| 1046 #{ | |
| 1047 s *= y; | |
| 1048 t = y + x; | |
| 1049 #} | |

1105 conversions between cells, structs and cs-lists. This usually reduces |
| 8755 | 1106 both time and memory consumption. |

| 1108 as a stack, when elements are being repeatedly inserted at/removed from | |

1130 subtracting a scalar, and multiplying by a scalar. Ranges with zero |
| 10453 | 1131 increment are allowed and can be constructed using the built-in |
| 1132 function `ones'. | |
| 9006 | 1133 |
| 1134 ** Various performance improvements. | |
| 1135 | |
| 10453 | 1136 Performance of a number of other built-in operations and functions |
| 1137 was improved, including: | |
| 9006 | 1138 |
| 1139 * logical operations | |
| 1140 * comparison operators | |
| 1141 * element-wise power | |
| 1142 * accumarray | |
| 1143 * cellfun | |
| 1144 * isnan | |
| 1145 * isinf | |
| 1146 * isfinite | |
| 1147 * nchoosek | |
| 1148 * repmat | |
| 1149 * strcmp | |
| 1150 | |
| 8737 | 1151 ** 64-bit integer arithmetic. |
| 1152 | |
| 1153 Arithmetic with 64-bit integers (int64 and uint64 types) is fully | |
| 1154 supported, with saturation semantics like the other integer types. | |
| 1155 Performance of most integer arithmetic operations has been | |
| 1156 improved by using integer arithmetic directly. Previously, Octave | |
| 1157 performed integer math with saturation semantics by converting the | |
| 1158 operands to double precision, performing the operation, and then | |
| 1159 converting the result back to an integer value, truncating if | |
| 1160 necessary. | |
| 1161 | |
| 8885 | 1162 ** Diagonal and permutation matrices. |
| 1163 | |
| 1164 The interpreter can now treat diagonal and permutation matrices as | |
| 1165 special objects that store only the non-zero elements, rather than | |
| 1166 general full matrices. Therefore, it is now possible to construct | |
| 1167 and use these matrices in linear algebra without suffering a | |
| 1168 performance penalty due to storing large numbers of zero elements. | |
| 1169 | |
| 1170 ** Improvements to fsolve. | |
| 1171 | |
| 1172 The fsolve function now accepts an option structure argument (see | |
| 1173 also the optimset function). The INFO values returned from fsolve | |
| 1174 have changed to be compatible with Matlab's fsolve function. | |
| 1175 Additionally, fsolve is now able to solve overdetermined systems, | |
| 1176 complex-differentiable complex systems, systems with a sparse | |
| 1177 jacobian and can work in single precision if given single precision | |

| 1185 ** New functions for computing some eigenvalues or singular values. | |
