[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #43098] "if (array)" should raise a warning, and give the same result for dense and sparse

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #43098 (project octave):

I would remove the code the code that prevents the warning being issued
multiple times between keyboard prompts.  It complicates the code and
increases the maintenance burden.  If someone runs an m-file with the "if
(array)" construct it will issue a few warnings, maybe a lot if it is in a for
loop.  At that point either the user changes the code or turns off the
warning.  Since the keyboard prompt code is helpful for at most one design
iteration I think it can be removed.

I'd like to understand why 'test XXX' works but 'make check' doesn't.  That
probably means some other problem to debug, but I find the longer form syntax
suggested by Colin easier to understand and would prefer to use it.
