Follow-up Comment #7, bug #34536 (project octave):

You can also store function handles in struct arrays.

Not all functions work on all types.

The current doc string says:

Return true if X is a vector.  A vector is a 2-D array where one of the
dimensions is equal to 1.  As a consequence a 1x1 array, or scalar, is also a
vector.

I think you have a different idea of what "array" means than I do.  In Octave,
an array is just an N-d (with N  >= 2) collection of objects that can be
indexed.  Array does not necessarily imply a numeric object.  If it did, we
would not have "cell arrays".

So I don't really see any bug to fix here.
