Is the first test case broken? (maybe after a Cody update...) :-/

Rafael S.T. Vieira on 26 Aug 2020

The test suite is broken. The current command for detecting the graphic card is a=rendererinfo(gca), but this can only done by hacking.

mmm... this should have worked... perhaps cody fixed the "change the function name" vulnerability?

Alfonso Nieto-Castanon on 12 Jul 2014

No they did not. I believe then this did not work because @char/regexp takes precedence over your regexp function... this will work if you use instead another among the "three" (this is a hint) functions called by the testsuite before the error occurs (this happens when evaluating "tf{1}")...

J.R.! Menzinger on 15 Jul 2014

I tryed also this:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/cody/problems/537-cody-computer-part-3-detect-the-graphic-card-used-on-cody-computer/solutions/470848

but it also does not work. :-(

Alfonso Nieto-Castanon on 15 Jul 2014

Ha, I followed the same sequence. Third time (and third function to overload) is a charm. Just look at the first test in the testsuite again :)

There must be a problem with the test 1. The displayed error comes from the test case not from my code. If your_fcn_name returns just a string the error will be displayed too!

Evan on 21 Jul 2013

I am having a similar problem. My code returns an identical match to the test case code when I run it in MATLAB, but I'm receiving an "Index exceeds matrix dimensions" error here.
