Update of bug #52016 (project octave):
Status: None => Confirmed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #2:
Sholdn't the short-circuit warning be extended to cover the 'until' condition?
If a programmer is migrating from Matlab to Octave they may decide to use
do/until loops, but with the assumption that the condition works the same as a
while loop.
In other words, I don't think we should have different behaviors based on
keyword used for the looping structure. It becomes a difficulty to remember
which loop does which thing. Instead, they should all behave similarly,
although Octave gives you more choices.
