Hi All, I use octave 3.2.3 under Cygwin (windows 7) for my math application. I discovered a bad calculation calling the function det(). The step to reproduce is this:
> A = [1,2,3;4,5,6;7,8,9]; > det(A) ans = -9.5171e-16 The matrix is singular so I expected the resul was 0 and not a very very little number. I problem is the same also with Octave 3.2.4. At the begin I thougth it was only a round error, but I've made the same proof with Octave under Debian Linux (lenny). Under Linux the resul has been 0 as I expected. Can anyone suggest me something to solve that problem? I'm using Cygwin 1.7.5-1 with Intel centrino 2 and windows 7 64 bit. Thank you in advance. Regards.
