[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44779] copy-on-write, varargin, and classdef: invalid dimension inquiry of a non-existent value

[Michael Goffioul]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #44779 (project octave):

I did some more experiments a few days ago, and it appears the fact that the
magic "end" is propagated from E2 to E1 is to support expressions like:


x(:,min(2,end))


I didn't know you could use "end" in a functional expression with the "end"
being applied to the outer object. Googling a bit I found this (
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23016606/what-are-the-semantics-of-end-in-matlab
), which implies this is an undocumented feature.
