[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52919] comparison of complex values

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #52919 (project octave):

Yeah, for operators like <, <=, etc., we use the same comparison for complex
numbers as Matlab does for sort, min, and max.  That makes sense to me.  It's
bizarre that Matlab would use a different sort ordering for those functions
than it does for the operators.

But I guess consistency is not as important as copying the exact behavior of
Matlab.  (Somewhat OT:  And now that Matlab has added double-quoted strings
that are incompatible with Octave, people are thinking that we can keep
Octave's behavior as it is now and do something different from Matlab?)
