A new release for GNU Octave

I have never understood why MATLAB hasn't introduced proper broadcasting like APL and its successors. My problem with Numpy is its awkward notation/syntax when compared to Matlab/APL.

Matlab has had broadcasting since 2016 (and obviously octave since forever)

That is true, but "proper" broadcasting should include some way to manipulate it like a rank conjunction.
