[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #43959] statistics package: kmeans incompatibility with Matlab

[Lachlan Andrew]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #43959 (project octave):

Jordi, I apologise for the poor quality of my previous patches.  This time, I
think that the patch is actually ready!  Please take a look at the latest
patch.

It implements most of the remaining functionality of Matlab's kmeans that was
missing from the earlier patches.  In particular, it allows:
- all of Matlab's initializations, including kmeans++ (Matlab's default, not
implemented in Octave's existing kmeans)
- all of the distance measures

as well as the other options provided by the other patches:
- replicates
- MaxIter
- emptyAction.

It also fixes problems with the way it handles unimplemented options (display,
onlinephase, options), and gives an error for options not supported by either
Octave or Matlab.

It would be great to have this wrapped up, and sorry again for the problems
with my earlier patches.
