Follow-up Comment #3, bug #56869 (project octave):

> Is Matlab always ignoring case?

No, it is only supporting these specific uppercase format specifiers which are
valid _output_ specifiers, and also allowing them as input specifiers. Other
uppercase letters that are not valid output specifiers are not allowed.

These


y = sscanf ('10', '%C')
y = sscanf ('10', '%D')
y = sscanf ('10', '%F')
y = sscanf ('10', '%I')
y = sscanf ('10', '%O')
y = sscanf ('10', '%S')
y = sscanf ('10', '%P')
y = sscanf ('10', '%U')


all return an empty char array (not an error, like Octave does).

And '%L' is not a valid width modifier in Matlab sscanf, it is not a synonym
for lowercase '%l'.
