Details:

Hello,
My issue is linked with my function call system, I am facing a bug that
prevent me to use some function more than once before relaunching octave.

This bug do not depends on the function script, any function simple or not
will trigger this bug if the input is a String (it wouldn t if it is an
integer).

As an example starting at the second call of the function:
result=function('a String')
the function returns A(I): index out of bounds; value %% out of bound %%
And this value will change with the String size. 


Moreover, I can also avoid the error by changing the name of the function and
function file by for example call the function function1 and then
result=functionAnOtherName('a String')
would possibly work perfectly if I call it multiple time in a row.

So it is like my build is related to the issue and randomly create errors on
some functions that take string in input(it could be some random function with
random names). 

Giving the script of any function will not help because I try on multiple kind
of function clearly different (sometimes really simple like taking an input,
don t use it, and returning result=1)

Like the system fail to get the input string or something like that.

I reinstalled octave multiple time and it didn t change anything.
Any idea on what part of octave on an ubuntu system could be related to this
kind of bug?
Thank you,
Andre F
