[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59899] colon operator returns incompatible class for integer inputs

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #59899 (project octave):

So, Octave is actually closer than I thought.  It seems that mostly the input
validation needs to be beefed up.

Case #1 : non-integer inputs in combination with integers


rng = uint8 (0) : 0.4 : 5
rng = uint8 (0) : 5.5


Both of these should produce an error as either the increment or the end point
is not an integer.

Case #2 : out-of-range values in combination with integers


rng = -2 : uint8 (5)
rng = uint8 (5) : -1 : -2


Both of these should produce an error as one of the endpoints is out-of-range
for the specified datatype.
