[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59103] inputname() is incorrect for string-like numeric inputs such as Inf, NaN, i

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #59103 (project octave):

Attached is my version of a fix which takes place at the m-file level. 
Whichever changeset we adopt, we should make the changes I did for the BIST
tests.  I eliminated their current dependency on the internal workings of
test.m which might change at some point in the future.

Regarding the first question, inputname called at the command prompt or in a
script throws an error rather than just returning "".  I wrote a fairly long
FIXME note in the m-file detailing some of the differences with Matlab, but
also recommending that we not bother to fix them.
