15 * There are two new built-in variables that control how global |
|
16 variables are initialized. If `initialize_global_variables' is |
|
17 nonzero, global variables are initialized to the value of the |
|
18 variable `default_global_variable_value'. The default value of |
|
19 `initialize_global_variables' is 0 (1 if you use --traditional) |
|
20 and `default_global_variable_value' is undefined (the empty matrix |
|
21 if you use --traditional). The default settings are compatible |
|
22 with versions of Octave before 2.0.10. |
