Sorry, as Jaroslav pointed out, that was a mistake. I've been coding
in Python recently, and got my wires crossed. You'll have to do
instead v1 = v(:,1); v2 = v(:,2); v3 = v(:,3) and so on.

You can do help some_function (e.g. help load) to see the help for
what each thing will do.

If you need help indexing and with arrays in Octave, the manual covers
indexing and slicing in Octave:
