- Known Bugs in RLaB:
-
- 1.) Matrix paged output gets hosed after an `out of memory'
- message.
-
- 2.) If you compile RLaB so that is does not generate a
- floating-point exeption, if an inf or a nan is produced, it is
- possible to get undefined behavior from the Fortran libraries.
- Simply put, some of the Fortran library functions will "hang"
- if passed a matrix that contains infs or nans.
-
- At this point in time the only way to workaround this problem
- is to compile RLaB so that infs and nans are trapped when
- generated (usually a divide by zero, or arithmetic
- overflow). This should prevent a Fortran routine from
- receiving an inf or nan.

-
- RLaB version number
- Hardware, and OS description
- A simple rfile that exercises the bug
