Update of bug #50098 (project octave):
Severity: 3 - Normal => 2 - Minor
Priority: 5 - Normal => 3 - Low
Status: None => Confirmed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
Confirmed. The list of functions that are external to Octave is maintained in
the function file __unimplemented__.m.
The financial package happens to be listed before the statistics package,
which is why it matches there first.
The external functions listed in this helper function are based on the public
Matlab web pages. What is unfortunate is that the Matlab class @fints in the
financial package overrides many core functions and functions in other
toolboxes, such as log or nanmean. These are listed as bare functions in
__unimplemented__.m, while they are actually methods bound to the @fints
class.
Some effort could be made to filter out functions that are actually methods
bound to specific types provided by Matlab's toolbox APIs.
