|
||
Octave Version 8.4.0 has been released and is now available for [download][1]. | ||
An official [Windows binary installer][2] is also available. | ||
For [macOS][3] see the installation instructions in the wiki. | ||
|
||
This version is a bug fixing release: | ||
|
||
### Improvements and fixes | ||
|
||
- `mkoctfile`: Skip parsing for less flags ([bug #64590](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64590)). | ||
- Fix getting number of non-zero elements in SuiteSparse matrices. | ||
- `delaunayn`: Avoid erroneous simplex removal for integer inputs ([bug #64658](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64658)). | ||
- `delaunayn`: Add precision loss warning for large int inputs ([bug #64658](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64658)). | ||
- `delaunayn`: Also warn for negative integers with large magnitude ([bug #64658](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64658)). | ||
- Correctly load all-zero sparse matrices from text files ([bug #64696](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64696)). | ||
- Allocate correct storage for interleaved complex mxArray objects ([bug #64687](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64687)). | ||
- `mkoctfile`: Prefer parsing over passing on argument after unknown argument ([bug #64725](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64725)). | ||
- `fft`: Avoid segmentation fault with ND-arrays ([bug #64729](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64729)). | ||
- `fft`: Avoid overwriting input for inplace operations ([bug #64733](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64733)). | ||
- `intersect.m`: Correct third output with `"stable"` flag ([bug #60347](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60347)). | ||
- Avoid use-after-free issue in parser ([bug #60882](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60882)). | ||
- `betainc.m`: Improve integer input logic and validation ([bug #64726](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64726)). | ||
- `webread`: Apply timeout also for initial connection ([bug #64826](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64826)). | ||
|
||
## Build system / Tests | ||
|
||
- `mkpp.m`: Remove stray text causing error with demo code. | ||
- Ensure that new test for saving sparse matrices writes a text file. | ||
- Search for tests in and install octave-value template sources ([bug #64696](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64696)). | ||
|
||
### Documentation | ||
|
||
- Correct variable name typo in documentation of `slice()`. | ||
- Expand documentation for `gcd()` and `lcm()`. | ||
- `datevec`: Clarify that heuristics are used to detect the format of a date string ([bug #64563](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64563)). | ||
- `datenum`: Add help text that inputs can be arrays, add examples ([bug #54679](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54679)). | ||
- `datevec`: Add help text that inputs can be arrays ([bug #54679](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54679)). | ||
- Describe various pitfalls with floating point ranges ([bug #64692](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64692)). | ||
- Add range example and some copyedits. | ||
