Subject: Potentially serious bug in Matlab R2009b
There seems to be a serious bug in the current Matlab release R2009b that
occurs when solving a linear system of equations with the transpose. Here
is a small example:
A=[ 0 2 ; 1 0 ];
b=[ 2 ; 0 ];
A'\b
ans =
0
1
whereas the correct solution is [ 0 ; 2 ]. The answer [ 0 ; 1 ] is the
solution of A\b, so it appears that the transpose sign ' is ignored.
However, the correct solution is returned when using
transpose(A)\b, A.'\b
instead of A'\b.
Interestingly, this bug does not occur for all matrices, for instance
A = [1 2 ; 1 1]
A'\b
returns the correct result [ -2 ; 4 ].
The bug seems to be new in release R2009b and applies to Linux and Windows
32 and 64 bit versions. A bug report has been filed.
