[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53675] Warning/documentation of mtimes with non-matrix arguments

[Rik]

Update of bug #53675 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #4:

>From the test in comment #3, and because I think it is good practice, Octave
should implement some sort of input validation for matrix multiplication. 
Should it be just a warning, or a full error as Matlab does?  I've added jwe
to the CC list.

I'm leaning towards a full error, as any programmer who really, really wants
to condense an N-D matrix to a 2-D matrix can do so themselves with indexing:


matrix2D = ndarray(:,:);
