Hi I'm new to Octave and I barely know Matlab. I'm starting using Octave, but I want to write code that is Matlab compatible. How can I achieve this?
I thought that the --traditional flag when launching Octave was made for this, but for example the simple not operator != that is not Matlab compatible still works:
se7entyse7en@Marvins-MacBook-Air:~/Projects/datascience$ octave --traditional

while I expect this statement to throw an error. I didn't try others known non-compatible Matlab statements. So, is it possible to run Octave in a purely Matlab compatible way? Or are there any tools that can analyze the code and warn if a non-compatible feature has been used?
