Details:

Publishing the following code with publish('test.m') produces incorrect
results.


tm = 29.43357091;
ta = 31 + (8/24);
tb = 31 + ((19+(45/60))/24);
dt = (5 / 60) / 24;
ts = ta:dt:tb;

numel(ts)

Mm = 1;
nm = 2;

%%
Ms = Mm + 2 * pi * nm * (ts - tm);
numel(Ms)

%%
numel(Ms)


Expected result:
The output of the numel() calls should be the same each time (142). Running
the code from the octave command line produces this result but using the
publish() function does not.

Actual result:
The last section break removes the last element from the Ms vector which
causes the last numel() call to return 141 instead of 142.

Further information:
I am running Arch Linux.

The bug does not get triggered if you change the first three lines to


tm = 29.43357091 - 29;
ta = 31 - 29 + (8/24);
tb = 31 - 29 + ((19+(45/60))/24);
