[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #63460] mean should support operation on more than 2 remaining dimensions for Matlab compatibility

[Andreas Bertsatos]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #63460 (project octave):

I 've recently pushed a new commit on the `mean` function in the statistics
package so that the `mean` function can handle up to 3 dimensional pages and
10 dimensions for data input, including error checks that were missing.

I understand that the nested for loops are a problem in terms of speed when
implemented through m files, but at least we have the missing functionality.
My intention is to make the implementations for the functions that are missing
the functionality for vecdim, nanflag, etc, and hopefully re-implement in c++
later on.

If it's not possible to include these in the forthcoming octave 8 release, I
would suggest that they will find their way into later releases, but at least
they will become available at some point.
