The following test code works on Matlab, but throws an error on Octave:


x = reshape (1:72, 3,3,4,2);
mean (x, [1,7,9])


This shouldn't be a problem.

A separate issue, but one that might get addressed in re-working the
algorithm, is that there are for loops which are going to be slow in m-files.
