Details:

According to the help page for prctile(X, P): 

Function File: Q = prctile (X)
Function File: Q = prctile (X, P)
If P is unspecified, return the quantiles for `[0 25 50 75 100]'.

But that doesn't seem to be the case:

octave:47> prctile([1:10]')
error: `dim' undefined near line 71 column 21
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: called from:
error:  
C:\Octave\Octave3.6.1_gcc4.6.2\share\octave\3.6.1\m\statistics\base\prctile.m
at line 71, column 5


prctile([1:10]', []) does seem to work, as it returns the stated percentiles.
