Follow-up Comment #2, bug #37903 (project octave):
John said:
"I don't see this as a problem with floor as much as the confusing way that
integers work in Matlab and that we have to conform to for compatibility."
I agree that Matlab is weird and the problem can be
considered to be with integers. But, it definitely leads
to confusion.
Is it really necessary to be Matlab compatible on this issue?
If so, the documentation needs to be corrected to reflect
the behavior. I find it hard to explain in terms ofther
than "Matlab does it that way."
