[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48064] for-loop over structure elements behaves differently from document

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #48064 (project octave):

I agree with Lachlan, eliminate any mention of the simplifications, except to
remind users that an element of the array can be omitted with the ~
placeholder.

This doesn't work in any version of Octave I have access to, back to 3.6.4,
not sure when it ever worked, if at all, or why it was documented or
implemented as this special case. I think it's clear that a straightforward
for loop with a struct array on the right hand side should just iterate over
the elements of the struct array.
