FWIW, I can confirm the OP's observations in Octave-dev and Matlab r2020b.

Dear Octave team,

The buffer() function in package 'signal-1.4.1' gives incorrect results (a wrongly sized output) with some specific parameter combinations.

The issue seems to be due to a wrong computation of the number of output columns when the 'overlap' parameter is specified, resulting in an extra column being output.

I can provide two verified cases of inconsistencies with Matlab R2017a:

buffer((1:16).', 8, 6, 'nodelay') outputs a matrix with 6 columns in Octave, versus 5 in Matlab R2017a.

buffer((1:16).', 8, 7, 'nodelay') outputs a matrix with 10 columns in Octave, versus 9 in Matlab R2017a.

The wrongly sized output causes errors in functions which use the buffer() function to generate data autocorrelation matrices (like Matlab's corrmtx).

Thank you for your support,
Paolo
