Particular cases
- Empty matrix and subtraction
In Matlab, subtraction can only be made if the operands have the same size unless one is a scalar. For exemple, empty matrices can only be subtracted to another empty matrix or a scalar.
Note that when you subtract an empty matrix to a scalar and inversely, Matlab result is always an empty matrix while in Scilab, result is equal to the scalar.
Examples
