[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #31380] textread() lacks format specifier repeat

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #31380 (project octave):

I think this is actually working.  The documentation for textscan
(http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/ref/textscan.html) says that it does
not use varargout the way your test is written.  If I rewrite your test to use
textread, which does behave the way you expect, than it works.


[Names, Types, x, y, Answer] = textread ("data2.csv", '%s Type%d %f %d %s',
2);


In any case, I just checked in more changes to these functions so you should
do an update from Mercurial to changeset 12877:ddea3962b024 before further
testing.
