Details:

Hello, 
My issue is linked with my build system, For some reason when I try on some
function.m file
result=function('a String')
the function returns  A(I): index out of bounds; value %% out of bound %%

But if the result do not depend on the input
result=function(a number)
would work and
result=function('a String')
wouldnt with the same error  A(I): index out of bounds triggered.

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=function1('a String')
would work

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). 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 Fougeront
