[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47676] Error applying multiplication-assignment operator to variable defined in script

[Carlo de Falco]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #47676 (project octave):

jwe, lachlan,

I'm not really an expert about parsers 
so forgive me if the following suggestion
does not make any sense.

IIUC the issue is that when a script is called
it is parsed completely before executing and
if it contains a call to another script, the
parser does not know what symbols are defined
in the second script when interpreting the first
one.

If this is the issue, would it make any sense to
consider the call to a script from within another
script as an "include" directive and passing to the
parser the full contents of the two combine scripts
to parse together?

BTW, is there any connection between this issue and 
bug #38236 ?
