Update of bug #40452 (project octave):

Follow-up Comment #1:

Have you tried "clear -f"?

BTW your example:
function foo "nop"; endfunction
gets me syntax complaints.

Anyway I think you'd better upgrade - 3.6.2 is quite old.

I can confirm this behavior in 3.6.4 (on Windows). However, in the development
version (3.7.7+) I see (on Linux and Windows):

>> function [retval] = foo (); retval = 1; end
>> exist foo
ans =  103
>> clear foo
>> exist foo
ans = 0
>> foo
error: 'foo' undefined near line 1 column 1
>>


so this bug has been fixed.
