call-by-reference should be possible
I want to implement "quick sort" as an in-place recursive function. However, as I understand, Octavve only supports call-by-value. Therefore it seems that I cannot implement what I want. This occurs odd to me. I have no trouble with call-by-value being the standard parameter passing mode. That it would be the only such mode seems to be a questionable choice.

Thanks for the feedback. This is a question relevant to GNU Octave itself, not the online interface. You should consider emailing help@octave.org with your suggestion.
