183 |
10118 | 184 ** The `lookup' function was extended to be more useful for |
185 general-purpose binary searching. Using this improvement, the | |
186 ismember function was rewritten for significantly better | |
187 performance. | |
9352 | 188 |
189 ** Real, integer and logical matrices, when used in indexing, will now | |
190 cache the internal index_vector value (zero-based indices) when | |
191 successfully used as indices, eliminating the conversion penalty for | |
10118 | 192 subsequent indexing by the same matrix. In particular, this means it |
193 is no longer needed to avoid repeated indexing by logical arrays | |
194 using find for performance reasons. | |
9888 | 195 |
10118 | 196 ** Logical matrices are now treated more efficiently when used as |
197 indices. Octave will keep the index as a logical mask unless the | |
198 ratio of true elements is small enough, using a specialized | |
199 code. Previously, all logical matrices were always first converted | |
200 to index vectors. This results in savings in both memory and | |
201 computing time. | |
9480 | 202 |
10118 | 203 ** The `sub2ind' and `ind2sub' functions were reimplemented as compiled |
204 functions for better performance. These functions are now faster, | |
205 can deliver more economized results for ranges, and can reuse the | |
206 index cache mechanism described in previous paragraph. | |
207 | |
208 ** The built-in function equivalents to associative operators (`plus', | |
209 `times', `mtimes', `and', and `or') have been extended to accept | |
210 multiple arguments. This is especially useful for summing | |
211 (multiplying, etc.) lists of objects (of possibly distinct types): | |
9408 | 212 |
9449 | 213 matrix_sum = plus (matrix_list{:}); |
214 | |
10118 | 215 ** An FTP object type based on libcurl has been implemented. These |
216 objects allow ftp connections, downloads and uploads to be | |
217 managed. For example, | |
9880 | 218 |
10118 | 219 fp = ftp ("ftp.octave.org); |
220 cd (fp, "gnu/octave"); | |
221 mget (fp, "octave-3.2.3.tar.bz2"); | |
222 close (fp); | |
9880 | 223 |
10118 | 224 ** The default behavior of `assert (observed, expected)' has been |
225 relaxed to employ less strict checking that does not require the | |
226 internals of the values to match. This avoids previously valid | |
227 tests from breaking due to new internal classes introduced in future | |
228 Octave versions. | |
9449 | 229 |
230 For instance, all of these assertions were true in Octave 3.0.x | |
231 but false in 3.2.x due to new optimizations and improvements: | |
232 | |
233 assert (2*linspace (1, 5, 5), 2*(1:5)) | |
234 assert (zeros (0, 0), []) | |
235 assert (2*ones (1, 5), (2) (ones (1,5))) | |
9462 | 236 |
10118 | 237 ** The behavior of library functions `ismatrix', `issquare', and |
238 `issymmetric' has been changed for better consistency. | |
9873 | 239 |
10292 | 240 * The `ismatrix' function now returns true for all numeric, |

|
241 logical and character 2-D or N-D matrices. Previously, `ismatrix' |
10292 | 242 returned false if the first or second dimension was zero. |
243 Hence, `ismatrix ([])' was false, | |
244 while `ismatrix (zeros (1,2,0))' was true. | |
9873 | 245 |
10118 | 246 * The `issquare' function now returns a logical scalar, and is |
247 equivalent to the expression | |
248 | |
249 ismatrix (x) && ndims (x) == 2 && rows (x) == columns (x) | |
250 | |
251 The dimension is no longer returned. As a result, `issquare ([])' | |
252 now yields true. | |
9873 | 253 |
10118 | 254 * The `issymmetric' function now checks for symmetry instead of |

|
255 Hermitianness. For the latter, ishermitian was created. Also, |
10118 | 256 logical scalar is returned rather than the dimension, so |
257 `issymmetric ([])' is now true. | |
9873 | 258 |
10118 | 259 ** Function handles are now aware of overloaded functions. If a |
260 function is overloaded, the handle determines at the time of its | |
261 reference which function to call. A non-overloaded version does not | |
262 need to exist. | |
9873 | 263 |
10118 | 264 ** Overloading functions for built-in classes (double, int8, cell, |
265 etc.) is now compatible with Matlab. | |
9408 | 266 |
10323 | 267 ** Function handles can now be compared with the == and != operators, |
268 as well as the `isequal' function. | |
269 | |
10118 | 270 ** Performance of concatenation (using []) and the functions `cat', |
271 `horzcat', and `vertcat' has been improved for multidimensional | |
272 arrays. | |
10117 | 273 |
9547 | 274 ** The operation-assignment operators +=, -=, *= and /= now behave more |
10118 | 275 efficiently in certain cases. For instance, if M is a matrix and S a |
276 scalar, then the statement | |
9547 | 277 |
10118 | 278 M += S; |
9547 | 279 |
10118 | 280 will operate on M's data in-place if it is not shared by another |
281 variable, usually increasing both time and memory efficiency. | |
9547 | 282 |
9558 | 283 Only selected common combinations are affected, namely: |
9547 | 284 |
285 matrix += matrix | |
286 matrix -= matrix | |
9558 | 287 matrix .*= matrix |
288 matrix ./= matrix | |
289 | |
9547 | 290 matrix += scalar |
291 matrix -= scalar | |
292 matrix *= scalar | |
293 matrix /= scalar | |
9558 | 294 |
9552 | 295 logical matrix |= logical matrix |
296 logical matrix &= logical matrix | |
9547 | 297 |
10118 | 298 where matrix and scalar belong to the same class. The left-hand |
299 side must be a simple variable reference. | |
9888 | 300 |
10118 | 301 Moreover, when unary operators occur in expressions, Octave will |
302 also try to do the operation in-place if it's argument is a | |

303 temporary expression. |
9589 | 304 |
10118 | 305 ** The effect of comparison operators (<, >, <=, and >=) applied to |
306 complex numbers has changed to be consistent with the strict | |
307 ordering defined by the `max', `min', and `sort' functions. More | |
308 specifically, complex numbers are compared by lexicographical | |
309 comparison of the pairs `[abs(z), arg(z)]'. Previously, only real | |
310 parts were compared; this can be trivially achieved by wrapping the | |
311 operands in real(). | |
9547 | 312 |
10118 | 313 ** The automatic simplification of complex computation results has |
314 changed. Octave will now simplify any complex number with a zero | |
315 imaginary part or any complex matrix with all elements having zero | |
316 imaginary part to a real value. Previously, this was done only for | |
317 positive zeros. Note that the behavior of the complex function is | |
318 unchanged and it still produces a complex value even if the | |
319 imaginary part is zero. | |
9826 | 320 |
10118 | 321 ** As a side effect of code refactoring in liboctave, the binary |
322 logical operations are now more easily amenable to compiler | |
323 optimizations and are thus significantly faster. | |
9595 | 324 |
10118 | 325 ** Octave now allows user-defined `subsasgn' methods to optimize out |
326 redundant copies. For more information, see the manual. | |
9595 | 327 |
10453 | 328 ** More efficient matrix division handling. Octave is now able to |
10118 | 329 handle the expressions |

333 V / M |
9664 | 334 |
10118 | 335 (M is a matrix and V is a vector) more efficiently in certain cases. |
336 In particular, if M is triangular, all three expressions will be | |
337 handled by a single call to xTRTRS (from LAPACK), with appropriate | |
10453 | 338 flags. Previously, all three expressions required a physical |
10118 | 339 transpose of M. |
9664 | 340 |
10118 | 341 ** More efficient handling of certain mixed real-complex matrix |
342 operations. For instance, if RM is a real matrix and CM a complex | |
343 matrix, | |
9664 | 344 |
10118 | 345 RM * CM |
9664 | 346 |
347 can now be evaluated either as | |
348 | |
349 complex (RM * real (CM), RM * imag (CM)) | |
350 | |
351 or as | |
352 | |
353 complex (RM) * CM, | |
354 | |
10453 | 355 depending on the dimensions. The first form requires more |
356 temporaries and copying, but halves the FLOP count, which normally | |
357 brings better performance if RM has enough rows. Previously, the | |
358 second form was always used. | |
9664 | 359 |
11111 | 360 Matrix division is similarly affected. |
9664 | 361 |
10118 | 362 ** More efficient handling of triangular matrix factors returned from |
363 factorizations. The functions for computing QR, LU and Cholesky | |
364 factorizations will now automatically return the triangular matrix | |
365 factors with proper internal matrix_type set, so that it won't need | |
366 to be computed when the matrix is used for division. | |
9717 | 367 |
10118 | 368 ** The built-in `sum' function now handles the non-native summation |
369 (i.e., double precision sum of single or integer inputs) more | |
370 efficiently, avoiding a temporary conversion of the whole input | |
371 array to doubles. Further, `sum' can now accept an extra option | |
372 argument, using a compensated summation algorithm rather than a | |
373 straightforward sum, which significantly improves precision if lots | |
374 of cancellation occurs in the summation. | |
9717 | 375 |
10118 | 376 ** The built-in `bsxfun' function now uses optimized code for certain |
377 cases where built-in operator handles are passed in. Namely, the | |
378 optimizations concern the operators `plus', `minus', `times', | |
379 `ldivide', `rdivide', `power', `and', `or' (for logical arrays), | |
380 the relational operators `eq', `ne', `lt', `le', `gt', `ge', and the | |
381 functions `min' and `max'. Optimizations only apply when both | |
382 operands are of the same built-in class. Mixed real/complex and | |
383 single/double operations will first convert both operands to a | |
384 common type. | |
9745 | 385 |
10118 | 386 ** The `strfind' and `strrep' functions now have compiled |
387 implementations, facilitating significantly more efficient searching | |
388 and replacing in strings, especially with longer patterns. The code | |
389 of `strcat' has been vectorized and is now much more efficient when | |
390 many strings are concatenated. The `strcmpi' and `strncmpi' | |
391 functions are now built-in functions, providing better performance. | |

10453 | 398 ** Matlab-style ignoring input and output function arguments using |
11111 | 399 tilde (~) is now supported. Ignored output arguments may be |
400 detected from a function using the built-in function `isargout'. | |
401 For more details, consult the manual. | |
10886 | 402 |
10453 | 403 ** The list datatype, deprecated since the introduction of cells, has |
404 been removed. | |
10276 | 405 |
10453 | 406 ** The accumarray function has been optimized and is now significantly |
407 faster in certain important cases. | |
10054 | 408 |
10292 | 409 ** The behavior of isreal and isnumeric functions was changed to be more |
410 Matlab-compatible. | |
411 | |
10406 | 412 ** The integer math & conversion warnings (Octave:int-convert-nan, |
413 Octave:int-convert-non-int-val, Octave:int-convert-overflow, | |
11111 | 414 Octave:int-math-overflow) have been removed. |
10406 | 415 |
10453 | 416 ** rem and mod are now built-in functions. They also handle integer |
417 types efficiently using integer arithmetic. | |
10437 | 418 |
10536 | 419 ** Sparse indexing and indexed assignment has been mostly rewritten. |
420 Since Octave uses compressed column storage for sparse matrices, | |
421 major attention is devoted to operations manipulating whole columns. | |
422 Such operations are now significantly faster, as well as some other | |
423 important cases. | |
424 | |
425 Further, it is now possible to pre-allocate a sparse matrix and | |
426 subsequently fill it by assignments, provided they meet certain | |
427 conditions. For more information, consult the `spalloc' function, | |
428 which is no longer a mere dummy. Consequently, nzmax and nnz are no | |
11111 | 429 longer always equal in Octave. Octave may also produce a matrix |
430 with nnz < nzmax as a result of other operations, so you should | |
431 consistently use nnz unless you really want to use nzmax (i.e. the | |
432 space allocated for nonzero elements). | |
10536 | 433 |
434 Sparse concatenation is also affected, and concatenating sparse | |
435 matrices, especially larger collections, is now significantly more | |
11111 | 436 efficient. This applies to both the [] operator and the |
10536 | 437 cat/vertcat/horzcat functions. |
438 | |
11111 | 439 ** It is now possible to optionally employ the xGESDD LAPACK drivers |
440 for computing the singular value decomposition using svd(), instead | |
441 of the default xGESVD, using the configuration pseudo-variable | |
442 svd_driver. The xGESDD driver can be up to 6x times faster when | |
443 singular vectors are requested, but is reported to be somewhat less | |
10639 | 444 robust on highly ill-conditioned matrices. |
445 | |
446 ** Configuration pseudo-variables, such as page_screen_output or | |
447 confirm_recursive_rmdir (or the above mentioned svd_driver), now | |
448 accept a "local" option as second argument, requesting the change | |

453 [status, msg] = rmdir (dir, "s"); | |
454 ... | |
455 endfunction | |
456 | |
457 Upon return, confirm_recursive_rmdir will be restored to the value | |
458 it had on entry to the function, even if there were subsequent | |
459 changes to the variable in function rm_rf or any of the functions | |
460 it calls. | |
461 | |
11111 | 462 ** pkg now accepts a -forge option for downloading and installing |
463 packages from Octave Forge automatically. For example, | |
10774 | 464 |
465 pkg install -forge general | |

662 __gnuplot_show__, __gnuplot_replot__, __gnuplot_splot__, |
8737 | 663 __gnuplot_save_data__ and __gnuplot_send_inline_data__ have been |
664 removed from Octave. These function were incompatible with the | |
665 high level graphics handle code. | |
6329 | 666 |
8885 | 667 ** The Control, Finance and Quaternion functions have been removed. |
668 | |
669 These functions are now available as separate packages from | |
670 | |
671 http://octave.sourceforge.net/packages.html | |
672 | |
673 and can be reinstalled using the Octave package manager (see | |
674 the pkg function). | |
675 | |
676 ** Specific sparse matrix functions removed. | |
677 | |
678 The following functions, which handled only sparse matrices have | |
679 been removed. Instead of calling these functions directly, you | |
680 should use the corresponding function without the "sp" prefix. | |
8737 | 681 |
8885 | 682 spatan2 spcumsum spkron spprod |
683 spchol spdet splchol spqr | |
684 spchol2inv spdiag splu spsum | |
685 spcholinv spfind spmax spsumsqk | |
686 spcumprod spinv spmin | |
687 | |
688 ** Improvements to the debugger. | |
689 | |
690 The interactive debugging features have been improved. Stopping | |
691 on statements with dbstop should work correctly now. Stepping | |
692 into and over functions, and stepping one statement at a time | |
693 (with dbstep) now works. Moving up and down the call stack with | |
694 dbup and dbdown now works. The dbstack function is now available | |
695 to print the current function call stack. The new dbquit function | |
696 is available to exit the debugging mode. | |
697 | |
698 ** Improved traceback error messages. | |
699 | |
700 Traceback error messages are much more concise and easier to | |
701 understand. They now display information about the function call | |
702 stack instead of the stack of all statements that were active at | |
703 the point of the error. | |

706 |
8737 | 707 Octave now includes OOP features and the user can create their own |
708 class objects and overloaded functions and operators. For | |
709 example, all methods of a class called "myclass" will be found in | |
710 a directory "@myclass" on the users path. The class specific | |
711 versions of functions and operators take precedence over the | |
712 generic versions of these functions. | |
713 | |
714 New functions related to OOP include | |
7189 | 715 |
8737 | 716 class inferiorto isobject loadobj methods superiorto |
717 | |
718 See the Octave manual for more details. | |
7038 | 719 |
8747 | 720 ** Parsing of Command-style Functions. |
721 | |
722 Octave now parses command-style functions without needing to first | |
723 declare them with "mark_as_command". The rules for recognizing a | |
724 command-style function calls are | |
725 | |
726 * A command must appear as the first word in a statement, | |
727 followed by a space. | |
728 | |
729 * The first character after the space must not be '=' or '(' | |
730 | |
731 * The next token after the space must not look like a binary | |
732 operator. | |
733 | |
734 These rules should be mostly compatible with the way Matlab parses | |
735 command-style function calls and allow users to define commands in | |
736 .m files without having to mark them as commands. | |
737 | |
738 Note that previous versions of Octave allowed expressions like | |
739 | |
740 x = load -text foo.dat | |
741 | |
742 but an expression like this will now generate a parse error. In | |
743 order to assign the value returned by a function to a variable, | |
744 you must use the normal function call syntax: | |
745 | |
746 x = load ("-text", "foo.dat"); | |
747 | |
8737 | 748 ** Block comments. |
749 | |
8747 | 750 Commented code can be between matching "#{" and "#}" or "%{" and |
751 "%}" markers, even if the commented code spans several line. This | |
752 allows blocks code to be commented, without needing to comment | |
753 each line. For example, | |
5814 | 754 |
8747 | 755 function [s, t] = func (x, y) |
756 s = 2 * x; | |
757 #{ | |
758 s *= y; | |
759 t = y + x; | |
760 #} | |

816 conversions between cells, structs and cs-lists. This usually reduces |
8755 | 817 both time and memory consumption. |
9128 | 818 Also, Octave will now attempt to detect and optimize usage of a vector |
819 as a stack, when elements are being repeatedly inserted at/removed from | |
820 the end of the vector. | |
8755 | 821 |
8738 | 822 ** Improved performance for reduction operations. |
823 | |

825 max and min functions has been significantly improved. | |

10453 | 830 indices are requested. An efficient built-in issorted |
831 implementation was added. The sortrows function now uses a more | |

832 efficient algorithm, especially in the homogeneous case. The lookup |
10453 | 833 function is now a built-in function performing a binary search, |
834 optimized for long runs of close elements. Lookup also works with | |
835 cell arrays of strings. | |
9006 | 836 |
837 ** Range arithmetics | |
838 | |
10453 | 839 For some operations on ranges, Octave will attempt to keep the |
840 result as a range. These include negation, adding a scalar, | |
841 subtracting a scalar, and multiplying by a scalar. Ranges with zero | |
842 increment are allowed and can be constructed using the built-in | |
843 function `ones'. | |
9006 | 844 |
845 ** Various performance improvements. | |
846 | |
10453 | 847 Performance of a number of other built-in operations and functions |
848 was improved, including: | |
9006 | 849 |
850 * logical operations | |
851 * comparison operators | |
852 * element-wise power | |
853 * accumarray | |
854 * cellfun | |
855 * isnan | |
856 * isinf | |
857 * isfinite | |
858 * nchoosek | |
859 * repmat | |
860 * strcmp | |
861 | |
8737 | 862 ** 64-bit integer arithmetic. |
863 | |
864 Arithmetic with 64-bit integers (int64 and uint64 types) is fully | |
865 supported, with saturation semantics like the other integer types. | |
866 Performance of most integer arithmetic operations has been | |
867 improved by using integer arithmetic directly. Previously, Octave | |
868 performed integer math with saturation semantics by converting the | |
869 operands to double precision, performing the operation, and then | |
870 converting the result back to an integer value, truncating if | |
871 necessary. | |
872 | |
8885 | 873 ** Diagonal and permutation matrices. |
874 | |
875 The interpreter can now treat diagonal and permutation matrices as | |
876 special objects that store only the non-zero elements, rather than | |
877 general full matrices. Therefore, it is now possible to construct | |
878 and use these matrices in linear algebra without suffering a | |
879 performance penalty due to storing large numbers of zero elements. | |
880 | |
881 ** Improvements to fsolve. | |
882 | |
883 The fsolve function now accepts an option structure argument (see | |
884 also the optimset function). The INFO values returned from fsolve | |
885 have changed to be compatible with Matlab's fsolve function. | |
886 Additionally, fsolve is now able to solve overdetermined systems, | |
887 complex-differentiable complex systems, systems with a sparse | |
888 jacobian and can work in single precision if given single precision | |

894 matrix in a single call, as well as general matrix p-norms. | |
895 | |
896 ** New functions for computing some eigenvalues or singular values. | |

899 functions require the ARPACK library (now distributed under a | |
