[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #33334] Concatenation cell strings and strings

[David Bateman]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #33334 (project octave):

Well if you want to know the results weren't what I was expecting. Why should
all three arguments be promoted to cell strings in the first example, but in
the third case only after the two strings are concatenated.. This seems like
another case of an adhoc matlab implementation.

In fact I now have another case that might be problematic. What does matlab
give for

['s1', {[1,1]}]
[{[1,1]}, 's1']

That is does the promotion of the strings only happen is the cell array
contains strings, or does the promotion always happen?

D.
