[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46671] Octave - Sympy

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #46671 (project octave):

I'm afraid your Octave version is too old - the function __compactformat__ was
added (IRC) in 3.8.2. So my advice is to upgrade Octave to a newer version.

Maybe maybe the following hack can help you:


function [retval] = __compactformat__ (fmt)

  if (strcmpi (get (0, "FormatSpacing"), "loose"))
    retval = 0;
  else
    retval = 1;
  endif

  if (fmt)
    set (0, "FormatSpacing", "loose");
  else
    set (0, "FormatSpacing", "compact");
  endif

endfunction


Copy this to __compactformat__.m, put this file somewhere in a subdir in your
Octave search path, and try again. Be sure to cross fingers.....

(And it may very well be that you'll then meet other issues with the symbolic
package. I can only emphasize my first advice)
