1 Summary of changes for version 2.0.6: |
|
|
2 ------------------------------------ |
|
|
3 |
|
|
4 * Functions like quad, fsolve, and lsode can take either a function |
|
|
5 name or a simple function body as a string. For example, |
|
|
6 |
|
|
7 quad ("sqrt (x)", 0, 1) |
|
|
8 |
|
|
9 is equivalent to |
|
|
10 |
|
|
11 function y = f (x) y = sqrt (x); endfunction |
|
|
12 quad ("f", 0, 1) |
|
|
13 |
|
2745
|
14 Summary of changes for version 2.0.5: |
|
|
15 ------------------------------------ |
|
|
16 |
|
2767
|
17 * A `switch' statement is now available. See the Statements chapter |
|
|
18 in the manual for details. |
|
|
19 |
|
2745
|
20 * Commands like ls, save, and cd may now also be used as formal |
|
|
21 parameters for functions. |
|
|
22 |
|
|
23 * More tests. |
|
|
24 |
|
2702
|
25 Summary of changes for version 2.0.4: |
|
|
26 ------------------------------------ |
|
|
27 |
|
|
28 * It is now possible to use commands like ls, save, and cd as simple |
|
|
29 variable names. They still cannot be used as formal parameters |
|
|
30 for functions, or as the names of structure variables. Failed |
|
|
31 assignments leave them undefined (you can recover the orginal |
|
2704
|
32 function definition using clear). |
|
|
33 |
|
|
34 * Is is now possible to invoke commands like ls, save, and cd as |
|
|
35 normal functions (for example, load ("foo", "x", "y", "z")). |
|
2702
|
36 |
|
2666
|
37 Summary of changes for version 2.0.3: |
|
|
38 ------------------------------------ |
|
|
39 |
|
|
40 * The manual has been completely revised and now corresponds much |
|
|
41 more closely to the features of the current version. |
|
|
42 |
|
|
43 * The return value for assignment expressions is now the RHS since |
|
|
44 that is more consistent with the way other programming languages |
|
|
45 work. However, Octave still prints the entire LHS value so that |
|
|
46 |
|
|
47 x = zeros (1, 2); |
|
|
48 x(2) = 1 |
|
|
49 |
|
|
50 still prints |
|
|
51 |
|
|
52 x = |
|
|
53 |
|
|
54 0 1 |
|
|
55 |
|
|
56 but an assignment like |
|
|
57 |
|
|
58 z = x(2) = 1 |
|
|
59 |
|
|
60 sets z to 1 (not [ 0, 1 ] as in previous versions of Octave). |
|
|
61 |
|
2683
|
62 * It is now much easier to make binary distributions. See the |
|
|
63 Binary Distributions section of the manual for more details. |
|
|
64 |
|
2615
|
65 Summary of changes for version 2.0.2: |
|
2613
|
66 ------------------------------------ |
|
|
67 |
|
2621
|
68 * Octave now stops executing commands from a script file if an error |
|
|
69 is encountered. |
|
|
70 |
|
|
71 * The return, and break commands now cause Octave to quit executing |
|
|
72 commands from script files. When used in invalid contexts, the |
|
|
73 break, continue, and return commands are now simply ignored |
|
|
74 instead of producing parse errors. |
|
|
75 |
|
2613
|
76 * size ("") is now [0, 0]. |
|
|
77 |
|
2634
|
78 * New functions: |
|
|
79 |
|
|
80 sleep -- pause execution for a specified number of seconds |
|
|
81 usleep -- pause execution for a specified number of microseconds |
|
|
82 |
|
2452
|
83 Summary of changes for version 2.0: |
|
|
84 ---------------------------------- |
|
|
85 |
|
2520
|
86 * The set and show commands for setting and displaying gnuplot |
|
|
87 parameters have been replaced by gset and gshow. This change will |
|
|
88 probably break lots of things, but it is necessary to allow for |
|
|
89 compatibility with the Matlab graphics and GUI commands in a |
|
|
90 future version of Octave. (For now, the old set and show commands |
|
|
91 do work, but they print an annoying warning message to try to get |
|
|
92 people to switch to using gset.) |
|
|
93 |
|
2581
|
94 * Octave has been mostly ported to Windows NT and Windows 95 using |
|
|
95 the beta 17 release of the Cygnus GNU-WIN32 tools. Not everything |
|
|
96 works, but it is usable. See the file README.WINDOWS for more |
|
|
97 information. |
|
|
98 |
|
2580
|
99 * Dynamic linking works on more systems using dlopen() and friends |
|
|
100 (most modern Unix systems) or shl_load() and friends (HP/UX |
|
|
101 systems). A simple example is provided in examples/hello.cc. |
|
|
102 For this feature to work, you must configure Octave with |
|
|
103 --enable-shared. You may also need to have a shared-library |
|
|
104 version of libg++ and libstdc++. |
|
|
105 |
|
2452
|
106 * New data types can be added to Octave by writing a C++ class. On |
|
|
107 systems that support dynamic linking, new data types can be added |
|
|
108 to an already running Octave binary. A simple example appears in |
|
|
109 the file examples/make_int.cc. Other examples are the standard |
|
|
110 Octave data types defined in the files src/ov*.{h,cc} and |
|
2580
|
111 src/op-*.cc. |
|
2452
|
112 |
|
|
113 * The configure option --enable-bounds-check turns on bounds |
|
|
114 checking on element references for Octave's internal array and |
|
|
115 matrix classes. It's enabled by default. To disable this |
|
|
116 feature, configure Octave with --disable-bounds-check. |
|
|
117 |
|
|
118 * The C-style I/O functions (fopen, fprintf, etc.) have been |
|
|
119 rewritten to be more compatible with Matlab. The fputs function |
|
|
120 has also been added. Usage of the *printf functions that was |
|
|
121 allowed in previous versions of Octave should still work. |
|
|
122 However, there is no way to make the new versions of the *scanf |
|
|
123 functions compatible with Matlab *and* previous versions of |
|
|
124 Octave. An optional argument to the *scanf functions is now |
|
|
125 available to make them behave in a way that is compatible with |
|
|
126 previous versions of Octave. |
|
|
127 |
|
2511
|
128 * Octave can now read files that contain columns of numbers only, |
|
|
129 with no header information. The name of the loaded variable is |
|
|
130 constructed from the file name. Each line in the file must have |
|
|
131 the same number of elements. |
|
|
132 |
|
2452
|
133 * The interface to the pager has changed. The new built-in variable |
|
|
134 `page_output_immediately' controls when Octave sends output to the |
|
|
135 pager. If it is nonzero, Octave sends output to the pager as soon |
|
|
136 as it is available. Otherwise, Octave buffers its output and |
|
|
137 waits until just before the prompt is printed to flush it to the |
|
|
138 pager. |
|
|
139 |
|
|
140 * Expressions of the form |
|
|
141 |
|
|
142 A(i,j) = x |
|
|
143 |
|
|
144 where X is a scalar and the indices i and j define a matrix of |
|
|
145 elements now work as you would expect rather than giving an error. |
|
|
146 I am told that this is how Matlab 5.0 will behave when it is |
|
|
147 released. |
|
|
148 |
|
|
149 * Indexing of character strings now works. |
|
|
150 |
|
|
151 * The echo command has been implemented. |
|
|
152 |
|
|
153 * The document command is now a regular function. |
|
|
154 |
|
|
155 * New method for handling errors: |
|
|
156 |
|
|
157 try |
|
|
158 BODY |
|
|
159 catch |
|
|
160 CLEANUP |
|
|
161 end_try_catch |
|
|
162 |
|
|
163 Where BODY and CLEANUP are both optional and may contain any |
|
|
164 Octave expressions or commands. The statements in CLEANUP are |
|
|
165 only executed if an error occurs in BODY. |
|
|
166 |
|
|
167 No warnings or error messages are printed while BODY is |
|
|
168 executing. If an error does occur during the execution of BODY, |
|
|
169 CLEANUP can access the text of the message that would have been |
|
|
170 printed in the builtin constant __error_text__. This is the same |
|
|
171 as eval (TRY, CATCH) (which may now also use __error_text__) but |
|
|
172 it is more efficient since the commands do not need to be parsed |
|
|
173 each time the TRY and CATCH statements are evaluated. |
|
|
174 |
|
|
175 * Octave no longer parses the help command by grabbing everything |
|
|
176 after the keyword `help' until a newline character is read. To |
|
|
177 get help for `;' or `,', now, you need to use the command |
|
|
178 `help semicolon' or `help comma'. |
|
|
179 |
|
|
180 * Octave's parser now does some simple constant folding. This means |
|
|
181 that expressions like 3*i are now evaluated only once, when a |
|
|
182 function is compiled, and the right hand side of expressions like |
|
|
183 a = [1,2;3,4] are treated as true matrix constants rather than |
|
|
184 lists of elements which must be evaluated each time they are |
|
|
185 needed. |
|
|
186 |
|
|
187 * Built-in variables that can take values of "true" and "false" can |
|
|
188 now also be set to any nonzero scalar value to indicate "true", |
|
|
189 and 0 to indicate "false". |
|
|
190 |
|
|
191 * New built-in variables `history_file', `history_size', and |
|
|
192 `saving_history'. |
|
|
193 |
|
|
194 * New built-in variable `string_fill_char' specifies the character |
|
|
195 to fill with when creating arrays of strings. |
|
|
196 |
|
|
197 * If the new built-in variable `gnuplot_has_frames' is nonzero, |
|
|
198 Octave assumes that your copy of gnuplot includes support for |
|
|
199 multiple plot windows when using X11. |
|
|
200 |
|
|
201 If the new built-in variable `gnuplot_has_multiplot' is nonzero, |
|
|
202 Octave assumes that your copy of gnuplot has the multiplot support |
|
|
203 that is included in recent 3.6beta releases. |
|
|
204 |
|
|
205 The initial values of these variables are determined by configure, |
|
|
206 but can be changed in your startup script or at the command line |
|
|
207 in case configure got it wrong, or if you upgrade your gnuplot |
|
|
208 installation. |
|
|
209 |
|
|
210 * The new plot function `figure' allows multiple plot windows when |
|
|
211 using newer versions of gnuplot with X11. |
|
|
212 |
|
|
213 * Octave now notices when the plotter has exited unexpectedly. |
|
|
214 |
|
|
215 * New built-in variable `warn_missing_semicolon'. If nonzero, Octave |
|
|
216 will warn when statements in function definitions don't end in |
|
|
217 semicolons. The default value is 0. |
|
|
218 |
|
|
219 * Octave now attempts to continue after floating point exceptions |
|
|
220 or out-of-memory errors. |
|
|
221 |
|
|
222 * If Octave crashes, it now attempts to save all user-defined |
|
|
223 variables in a file named `octave-core' in the current directory |
|
|
224 before exiting. |
|
|
225 |
|
|
226 * It is now possible to get the values of individual option settings |
|
|
227 for the dassl, fsolve, lsode, npsol, qpsol, and quad functions |
|
|
228 using commands like |
|
|
229 |
|
|
230 dassl_reltol = dassl_options ("relative tolerance"); |
|
|
231 |
|
|
232 * The svd() function no longer computes the left and right singular |
|
|
233 matrices unnecessarily. This can significantly improve |
|
|
234 performance for large matrices if you are just looking for the |
|
|
235 singular values. |
|
|
236 |
|
|
237 * The filter() function is now a built-in function. |
|
|
238 |
|
|
239 * New function randn() returns a pseudo-random number from a normal |
|
|
240 distribution. The rand() and randn() functions have separate |
|
|
241 seeds and generators. |
|
|
242 |
|
|
243 * Octave's command-line arguments are now available in the built-in |
|
|
244 variable `argv'. The program name is also available in the |
|
|
245 variables `program_invocation_name' and `program_name'. If |
|
|
246 executing a script from the command line (e.g., octave foo.m) or |
|
|
247 using the `#! /bin/octave' hack, the program name is set to the |
|
|
248 name of the script. |
|
|
249 |
|
|
250 * New built-in variable `completion_append_char' used as the |
|
|
251 character to append to successful command-line completion |
|
|
252 attempts. The default is " " (a single space). |
|
|
253 |
|
|
254 * Octave now uses a modified copy of the readline library from |
|
|
255 version 1.14.5 of GNU bash. |
|
|
256 |
|
|
257 * In prompt strings, `\H' expands to the whole host name. |
|
|
258 |
|
|
259 * New built-in variable `beep_on_error'. If nonzero, Octave will try |
|
|
260 to ring your terminal's bell before printing an error message. |
|
|
261 The default value is 0. |
|
|
262 |
|
2554
|
263 * For functions defined from files, the type command now prints the |
|
|
264 text of the file. You can still get the text reconstructed from |
|
|
265 the parse tree by using the new option -t (-transformed). |
|
|
266 |
|
2452
|
267 * New command-line argument --traditional sets the following |
|
|
268 preference variables for compatibility with Matlab: |
|
|
269 |
|
|
270 PS1 = ">> " |
|
|
271 PS2 = "" |
|
|
272 beep_on_error = 1 |
|
|
273 default_save_format = "mat-binary" |
|
|
274 define_all_return_values = 1 |
|
|
275 do_fortran_indexing = 1 |
|
|
276 empty_list_elements_ok = 1 |
|
|
277 implicit_str_to_num_ok = 1 |
|
|
278 ok_to_lose_imaginary_part = 1 |
|
|
279 page_screen_output = 0 |
|
|
280 prefer_column_vectors = 0 |
|
|
281 prefer_zero_one_indexing = 1 |
|
|
282 print_empty_dimensions = 0 |
|
|
283 treat_neg_dim_as_zero = 1 |
|
|
284 warn_function_name_clash = 0 |
|
|
285 whitespace_in_literal_matrix = "traditional" |
|
|
286 |
|
|
287 * New functions: |
|
|
288 |
|
|
289 readdir -- returns names of files in directory as array of strings |
|
|
290 mkdir -- create a directory |
|
|
291 rmdir -- remove a directory |
|
|

|
|
298 fnmatch -- match strings with filename globbing patterns |
|
2452
|
299 more -- turn the pager on or off |
|
|
300 gammaln -- alias for lgamma |
|
|
301 |
|
|
302 * New audio functions from Andreas Weingessel |
|
|
303 <Andreas.Weingessel@ci.tuwien.ac.at>. |
|
|
304 |
|
2458
|
305 lin2mu -- linear to mu-law encoding |
|
|
306 loadaudio -- load an audio file to a vector |

|
|
310 saveaudio -- save a vector as an audio file |
|
|
311 setaudio -- executes mixer shell command |
|
2452
|
312 |
|
|
313 * New plotting functions from Vinayak Dutt. Ones dealing with |
|
|
314 multiple plots on one page require features from gnuplot 3.6beta |
|
|
315 (or later). |
|
|
316 |
|
|
317 bottom_title -- put title at the bottom of the plot |
|
|
318 mplot -- multiplot version of plot |
|
|
319 multiplot -- switch multiple-plot mode on or off |
|
|
320 oneplot -- return to one plot per page |
|
|
321 plot_border -- put a border around plots |
|
|
322 subplot -- position multiple plots on a single page |
|
|
323 subwindow -- set subwindow position for next plot |
|
|
324 top_title -- put title at the top of the plot |
|
|
325 zlabel -- put a label on the z-axis |
|
|
326 |
|
|
327 * New string functions |
|
|
328 |
|
|
329 bin2dec -- convert a string of ones and zeros to an integer |
|
|
330 blanks -- create a string of blanks |
|
|
331 deblank -- delete trailing blanks |
|
|
332 dec2bin -- convert an integer to a string of ones and zeros |

337 rindex -- return position of last occurrence a string in another |
|
|
338 split -- divide one string into pieces separated by another |
|
|
339 str2mat -- create a string matrix from a list of strings |
|
|
340 strrep -- replace substrings in a string |
|
|
341 substr -- extract a substring |
|
|
342 |
|
|
343 The following functions return a matrix of ones and zeros. |
|
|
344 Elements that are nonzero indicate that the condition was true for |
|
|
345 the corresponding character in the string array. |
|
|
346 |
|
|
347 isalnum -- letter or a digit |
|
|
348 isalpha -- letter |
|
|
349 isascii -- ascii |
|
|
350 iscntrl -- control character |
|
|
351 isdigit -- digit |
|
|
352 isgraph -- printable (but not space character) |
|
|
353 islower -- lower case |
|
|
354 isprint -- printable (including space character) |
|
|
355 ispunct -- punctuation |
|
|
356 isspace -- whitespace |
|
|
357 isupper -- upper case |
|
|
358 isxdigit -- hexadecimal digit |
|
|
359 |
|
|
360 These functions return new strings. |
|
|
361 |
|
2458
|
362 tolower -- convert to lower case |
|
|
363 toupper -- convert to upper case |
|
2452
|
364 |
|
|
365 * New function, fgetl. Both fgetl and fgets accept an optional |
|
|
366 second argument that specifies a maximum number of characters to |
|
|
367 read, and the function fgets is now compatible with Matlab. |
|
|
368 |
|
|
369 * Printing in hexadecimal format now works (format hex). It is also |
|
|
370 possible to print the internal bit representation of a value |
|
|
371 (format bit). Note that these formats are only implemented for |
|
|
372 numeric values. |
|
|
373 |
|
|
374 * Additional structure features: |
|
|
375 |
|
|
376 -- Name completion now works for structures. |
|
|
377 |
|
|
378 -- Values and names of structure elements are now printed by |
|
|
379 default. The new built-in variable `struct_levels_to_print' |
|
|
380 controls the depth of nested structures to print. The default |
|
|
381 value is 2. |
|
|
382 |
|
|
383 -- New functions: |
|
|
384 |
|
|
385 struct_contains (S, NAME) -- returns 1 if S is a structure with |
|
|

|
409 The `clock' and `date' functions are now implemented in M-files |
|
|
410 using these basic functions. |
|
|
411 |
|
|
412 * Access to additional Unix system calls: |

|
|
462 getgrgid -- search for group entry with matching group ID |

|
467 * The New function octave_config_info returns a structure containing |
|
|
468 information about how Octave was configured and compiled. |
|
|
469 |
|
|
470 * New function getrusage returns a structure containing system |
|
|
471 resource usage statistics. The `cputime' function is now defined |
|
|
472 in an M-file using getrusage. |
|
|
473 |
|
|
474 * The info reader is now a separate binary that runs as a |
|
|
475 subprocess. You still need the info reader distributed with |
|
|
476 Octave though, because there are some new command-line arguments |
|
|
477 that are not yet available in the public release of Info. |
|
|
478 |
|
|
479 * There is a new built-in variable, INFO_PROGRAM, which is used as |
|
|
480 the name of the info program to run. Its initial value is |
|
|
481 $OCTAVE_HOME/lib/octave/VERSION/exec/ARCH/info, but that value can |
|
|
482 be overridden by the environment variable OCTAVE_INFO_PROGRAM, or |
|
|
483 the command line argument --info-program NAME, or by setting the |
|
|
484 value of INFO_PROGRAM in a startup script. |
|
|
485 |
|
|
486 * There is a new built-in variable, EXEC_PATH, which is used as |
|
|
487 the list of directories to search when executing subprograms. Its |
|
|
488 initial value is taken from the environment variable |
|
|
489 OCTAVE_EXEC_PATH (if it exists) or PATH, but that value can be |
|
|
490 overridden by the the command line argument --exec-path PATH, or |
|
|
491 by setting the value of EXEC_PATH in a startup script. If the |
|
|
492 EXEC_PATH begins (ends) with a colon, the directories |
|
|
493 $OCTAVE_HOME/lib/octave/VERSION/exec/ARCH and $OCTAVE_HOME/bin are |
|
|
494 prepended (appended) to EXEC_PATH (if you don't specify a value |
|
|
495 for EXEC_PATH explicitly, these special directories are prepended |
|
|
496 to your PATH). |
|
|
497 |
|
|
498 * If it is present, Octave will now use an `ls-R' database file to |
|
|
499 speed up recursive path searching. Octave looks for a file called |
|
|
500 ls-R in the directory specified by the environment variable |
|
|
501 OCTAVE_DB_DIR. If that is not set but the environment variable |
|
|
502 OCTAVE_HOME is set, Octave looks in $OCTAVE_HOME/lib/octave. |
|
|
503 Otherwise, Octave looks in the directory $datadir/octave (normally |
|
|
504 /usr/local/lib/octave). |
|
|
505 |
|
|
506 * New examples directory. |
|
|
507 |
|
|
508 * There is a new script, mkoctfile, that can be used to create .oct |
|
|
509 files suitable for dynamic linking. |
|
|
510 |
|
|
511 * Many more bug fixes. |
|
|
512 |
|
|
513 * ChangeLogs are now kept in each subdirectory. |
