Hi everyone, I am new to the forum and a complete beginner in Julia here. I am not sure if this is the correct category to post this doubt. This might already be a redundant doubt if someone else has asked this but I was trying to use Forward Diff to calculate the Hessian and as the title suggests…

ForwardDiff.jl does not throw an error even when I try to put in a function outputting an array to calculate the Hessian

Hi, welcome to discourse!
indeed, weird behaviour, i can reproduce on julia 1.5.1
