[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #32863] x.y.z syntax for structure fails ("scalar cannot be indexed with .")

[Rik]

Update of bug #32863 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Need Info

Follow-up Comment #2:

Can you point out where exactly in the documentation it says that you can
combine the two statements as shown?  I did a quick look and I couldn't find
it.

Each statement is valid by itself, but they cannot follow each other without
clobbering the first assignment.  The warning message from Matlab is clearer
in this regard.

As a related example,

x = 0;
y = 1/x;

are both valid assignments, but they can't be combined without generating an
error.
