[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64692] colon range includes an extra value

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #22, bug #64692 (project octave):

I wouldn't try to guess what is "dangerous" or not.  I'd just have something
like

* if base and increment are integers and limit is not, warn about that
(maybe)
* if either base or increment are not integers, warn that floating point
ranges may produce unexpected results

In any case, the warning should have an ID like Octave:floating-point-range to
allow it to be disabled.

And, of course, any warning like this needs to be disabled if Octave is
started with the --traditional option.
