Could someone run the following in Matlab?

x = [-1, 0, i]
logical (x)

According to the documentation this should produce an error, while Octave
happily converts any non-zero value including 'i' to true.

Almost right. logical(X) applies for logical, int32, int64, single, double, and complex of
any size or shape.  But not char of any length. This seems appropriate.

This could be made  clear in the documentation which does not mention any
restriction on X.
