----- Forwarded message from Drew Parsons <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- From: Drew Parsons <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 16:41:05 +1100 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#471273: Section 14.1.4: Rational Approximations Organization: The Debian Project X-Mailer: Evolution 2.12.3 Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello Octave Maintainers, I've noticed that in the octave documentation section 14.1.4 documented a pair of functions used to generate rational approximations. Section 14 concerns Input and Output and Sect 14.1 is for Basic Input and Output, so it looked to me that Sect 14.1.4 had got misplaced somehow. After raising the matter with the Debian octave maintainers, we figured the Rational Approximations were probably in that Section because they can be used as an option to the format() function, Sec 14.1.1. I'm bringing the question to you then, to confirm if you really do want to confine these functions to output only, or whether they have any other broader uses that might warrant placing them in some other section (e.g. Number Theory) ?
