Details:

Hi, Thanks for building Octave

I have Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS, Gnome 3.28.2, OS type: 64-bit. I am using GNU
Octave version 5.2.0.
I tried using plotyy function mentioned in the demonstrations in Octave source
forge (https://octave.sourceforge.io/octave/function/plotyy.html). It gives me
error as below upon execution

warning: function /home/nayan/Desktop/plotyy.m shadows a core library
function
plotyy

error: invalid call to script /home/nayan/Desktop/plotyy.m
error: called from
    plotyy at line 5 column 5


The error also shows up if I am trying out other demonstration in the above
mentioned link or trying the same in lower version of Octave (4.2.2) for
Ubuntu 18.04.04.
I am attaching the same for your reference. Please help
