input from stdin

[Bertrand Roessli]

Hello,

it is not clear to me why I get the following output when I enter 
values directly from a terminal

octave:1> [as,bs,cs,aa,bb,cc,count]=fscanf(stdin,'%f %f %f %f %f %
f',"C")
1 2 3 4 5 6
4 
as = 1
bs = 2
cs = 3
aa = 4
bb = 5
cc = 6
count = 6
octave:2> [as,bs,cs,aa,bb,cc,count]=fscanf(stdin,'%f %f %f %f %f %
f',"C")
1 2 3 4 5 6
as = 4
bs = 1
cs = 2
aa = 3
bb = 4
cc = 5
count = 6


I am using version 2.1.73

Thank you,

B.
