And another case,
For values larger than the maximum value of a given integer data type
(e.g. 127 for int8) Scilab and Matlab return different values.
For example, Scilab's result for int8(200) is -56 but Matlab's result
will be 127 (the largest value which can be stored in this data type).
Scilab wraps integer overflows (200 - 2^8 = -56), whereas Octave
saturates. When overflowing an integer, "R" delivers a "NA" value (Not
Available).
I have no opinion about the best way to deal with integer overflow when
designing the language.
This kind of topic has been discussed when designing the bitshift()
function for Scilab:
