min, max skips NaN entriesUp to now I thought skipping NaN elements is the objective of the 'skipnan' - package.
If this was implemented into mainstream Octave and changed into a 'feature' now, this should have been documented somewhere in order to prevent people from wasting their precious time. As long as it is not documented I consider this feature as a bug.

Isn't this just the way NaN works. I mean octave:3> x=[1,NaN;NaN,4]; octave:4> x > 2 ans = 0 0 0 1 octave:5> x < 2 ans = 1 0 0 0 So, what else should min/max return that would be consistent with how scalars and NaNs are compared?

Matlab behaves the same, so I don't think this will be considered as a bug.
