[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52174] bitand, bitor, bitxor: support automatic broadcasting

[Mike Miller]

Update of bug #52174 (project octave):

                Severity:              3 - Normal => 2 - Minor              
                Priority:              5 - Normal => 3 - Low                
              Item Group:        Incorrect Result => Matlab Compatibility   
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Release:                   4.2.1 => dev                    
                 Summary: bitxor does not work between one row vector and one
column vector => bitand, bitor, bitxor: support automatic broadcasting

Follow-up Comment #1:

This was a recent change in Matlab R2016b, take a look at
https://blogs.mathworks.com/loren/2016/10/24/matlab-arithmetic-expands-in-r2016b/

The bitand, bitor, and bitxor functions are among a handful of others that now
support automatic broadcasting when given unlike vectors.

As a workaround for now you can still explicitly use bsxfun


c = bsxfun (@bitxor, byteVector', data);
