You don't show your code.

I assume the problem occurs when you call some *plot function. If it's the case 
I suggest to check sizes of the function arguments.

Your problem begins with

"
memory exhausted or requested size too large for range of Octave's index type 
-- trying to return to prompt
",

i.e. you have to find out why "memory [is] exhausted".
