Dear friends some problems with TestBench
assert(isequal(rms_value(x),y_correct))
??? Assertion failed.
I don't know why it happens....

Amin Bashi on 25 Dec 2012

format long
rms_value(x)

ans =

6.204836822995429

The assertion calls in the last two checks will always fail because they are missing a ). This problem is unsolvable until it gets fixed.

there is certainly some problem wid the test suite...

Aurelien Queffurust on 16 Jan 2013

Please correct or remove test suite 3 : x = [0 0.5 1/sqrt(2) 1 sqrt(2)];

Bad test cases!

The RMS is defined as the root-mean-squared deviation *from the mean*, not from zero ... so I think the whole test suite needs fixing.

All but one of the test cases require solutions truncated to an arbitrary precision. The other expects an exact solution, but not quite the exact solution I arrive at. Maybe RMS has a special connotation I've forgotten when it involves complex numbers?
