Hi Gary,

Same version here.

Your question is not clear.  Here's what I see:

octave:1>x=1;
octave:2>avg(x)
ans = 1
octave:3>avg(x);
octave:4>

How does yours differ?

Here's a diary:

octave:6>diary on   
octave:7>avg(x);    
octave:8>avg(x);    
octave:9>avg(x);    
octave:10>diary off 

I suspect a setup or install problem.

I'd review octave.ini.
