[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #51682] No error issued for left division of scalar_double_type \ integer_matrix_type, also wrong answer

[John W. Eaton]

Update of bug #51682 (project octave):

                  Status:               Confirmed => Ready For Test

Follow-up Comment #3:

It turns out that this was a one-line fix for a likely cut and paste error.  I
pushed the following changeset to stable and merged with default:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/dfc017e465f2

Now I see:


octave> is = int8 (10); im = int8 ([10, 20; 30, 40]);
octave> r = 5 \ is, class (r)
r = 2
ans = int8
octave> r = single (5) \ is, class (r)
r = 2
ans = int8
octave> r = 5 \ im, class (r)
r =

  2  4
  6  8

ans = int8
octave> r = single (5) \ im, class (r)
r =

  2  4
  6  8

ans = int8


and so on for other integer types.

Am I missing something, or do we not have a set of tests for integer
arithmetic?  Maybe we can do something systematic and cover a large set of
cases at once in one of the code sprints next week.

Please close this report if the problem is fixed for you.
