[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46852] error gripe appearing when it seemingly shouldn't during length()

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #46852 (project octave):

117 is the ASCII code for 'u'.  Does that give any clues?  Usually when I see
out of bounds errors like this it is because a character string is being
interpreted as an index when it is not expected.  For example:


ls = 1;
ls ('u')


Exactly what hg id are you using?  I don't see where the "index out of bounds"
message is coming from.  However, the example code above does generate this
message when I run it with Octave 4.0.0.

Also, where is "writechars" defined?  I don't see it in the Octave or Octave
Forge sources.

Regardless of whether it is possible to create a simple test script, is is
possible to send something that can be used to duplicate the problem?
