Sorry, forgot to erase that bit. I was going to inquire about the result

octave:25> [1:0:1]
ans = [](1x0)

where the increment is zero. Technically, one could argue [a:0:b] = a.
That is, there may be an infinite number of integer values K for which
a+K*0 < b, but all values of a+K*0 are a. Arbitrary choice I suppose.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

a+K*0 <= b
