evaluation order in matlab/octave

[Levente Torok]

Hi!

The following expression runs differently on octave than on matlab:

function z = f( par ) 
    if ( nargin==0 | isempty(par) )
        z=3;
    end
end

Calling
        f;
results in differences.

In matlab if the first part of the if statment is true, the second term is not 
evaluated hence it
runs fine.
In octave it raieses and error that par is not defined.
Is there a way to overcome this or it would cause too much work.

Lev
