line 36: warning('Emulating undocumented behaviour (w=[]). Please use w=0 instead.'); This is OK when the user is calling the nanvar, but ttest() also uses nanvar with w=[]. Therefore, each ttest() generates this warning. 2 possible solutions: - Replace warning() with warning_once(). - Remove the warning, and just implement the behaviour with w=[] as the stats toolbox and don't care that it's undocumented.

My view: w=0 is the default value, therefor an empty w should always revert to w=0. I would vote for removing the warning. Perhaps we can make a note about this in the function header/help. Unless someone can convince me of a difference in meaning between nanvar(x) and nanvar(x,[]).

as discussed in FT meeting, warning is removed
