[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52647] missing function: erase (introduced Matlab 2016b)

[Rik]

Update of bug #52647 (project octave):

        Operating System:               GNU/Linux => Any

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.  It often isn't worth it for Octave to follow Matlab too closely
because they have a habit of changing their function names, discontinuing
functions, altering the API, etc.  If the function survives for a few years
without change then it can be worth adopting.

In the mean time, you can have the same functionality with regexprep().


regexprep (string, substring, '')
