[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54765] space between function name and opening parenthesis causes havoc for expression inside brackets

[Mike Miller]

Update of bug #54765 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Invalid                
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

Thanks for your bug report. But this is not a bug, this is the correct
operation of the square bracket syntax for array concatenation in Octave and
Matlab.

Spaces are significant inside of square brackets in the Octave language. The
syntax


[sin (0)]


is equivalent to


[sin(), 0]


You can read more about this in the Octave user manual at
http://octave.org/doc/interpreter/Matrices.html. In fact, an example showing a
call to the sin function is used to illustrate how the syntax is parsed.
