[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46770] num2str in Matlab overwrites user-supplied input FORMAT

[Rik]

Update of bug #46770 (project octave):

                  Status:             In Progress => Wont Fix               
                 Summary: num2str produces different results in Octave and in
Matlab => num2str in Matlab overwrites user-supplied input FORMAT

Follow-up Comment #17:

I made num2str and int2str Matlab compatible for all cases where a FORMAT
argument is not used.  See
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/b0afe1993268.  I won't override a
programmer's intention by changing a user-specified FORMAT, so that
incompatibility will remain by choice.  And as the documentation says, sprintf
is always available for having more control over the output.
