Package: octave2.9
Version: 2.9.9-8etch1
Severity: normal
-- Built-in Function: error (TEMPLATE, ...)
The `error' function formats the optional arguments under the
control of the template string TEMPLATE using the same rules as
the `printf' family of functions (*note Formatted Output::). The
resulting message is prefixed by the string `error: ' and printed
on the `stderr' stream.
however:
octave:39> error("%d", 7)
error: 7
error: in error
>>> error ("%d", 7)
