[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #61300] integer range might exceed upper limit

[Arun Giridhar]

Follow-up Comment #41, bug #61300 (project octave):

I am seeing a regression with nchoosek. It looks like it was because of this
change because it affects stable too.

Before this patch, nchoosek only failed for unsigned types as described in bug
#61565 but DID work for signed integers. Now that fails too with a length
mismatch error:


>> nchoosek (int8 (10), int8 (5))
error: product: nonconformant arguments (op1 is 1x3, op2 is 1x2)
error: called from
    nchoosek at line 125 column 13


We can certainly patch nchoosek (much easier than patching Range) but I wanted
to raise it here because it might be a symptom of something deeper.
