Hi!

I've tested now int8(0) == int16(0) and isequal(int8(0),int16(0)) and
these don't work. From documentation, I believe that MATLAB answers 1 to
both.


octave:164> int8(0)==int16(0)
error: binary operator `==' not implemented for `int8 scalar' by `int16
scalar' operations

octave:164> isequal(int8(0),int16(0))
