Details:

Example:


>> validateattributes(eye(5), {'numeric'}, {'size',[5 5], 'diag'})
error: validateattributes: unknown ATTRIBUTE diag
error: called from
    validateattributes at line 321 column 9


It should be easy to fix, using ISDAIG function to perform the test.

Also there's a typo in the documentation, where it mentions "non-negative"
attribute but its name should be "nonnegative" to match MATLAB.


% this will error
% validateattributes(1:3, {'numeric'}, {'non-negative'})

% this works
validateattributes(1:3, {'numeric'}, {'nonnegative'})
