  Hello,

  you are right, octave was wanting double parenthesis.

  Is there any reason to make parentheses obligatory in tests? I believe
that parens are useless there (the expression stops at the end of the 
line -eventually continued with "\".)

  Cheers

  Etienne


PS : Any explanation for the 

octave:5> a = 3; [ a ==1, a ==2]
parse error:

>>> a = 3; [ a ==1, a ==2]
                 ^

   parse error?
