Description

I am receiving the following warning when I run the attached script:

WARN StatementBlock: WARNING: ../StepLinearRegDS.dml -- line 435, column 8 -- Initialization of beta_out depends on if-else execution

beta_out was previously defined in an attempt to remove this warning but did not work:

beta_out = matrix(1, 1, 1);
dummy = beta_out + 1;
print(toString(beta_out));
