Package: octave2.9 Version: 2.9.9-8etch1 Severity: important There is a floating point exception, followed by a core dump for the following (representative) code: Mt = 2; Mr = 2; N = 4;
G = zeros(N,2); h_f = fft(G(1:Mr:(N-16-1)*Mr+1,1)); This should actually run, or produce an error (since N - 16 is negative). The core dump promptly disappears when N is made 17 or more. The messages from octave are like this: panic: Floating point exception -- stopping myself... attempting to save variables to `octave-core'... save to `octave-core' complete Floating point exception Should you require more information, please do inform me.
