You still haven't made it clear. It would be good if you provided
some context, not just two isolated lines that don't even include an
indexing operation.
Can you debug problems without seeing the code that fails? Do you
think we can?
Anyway, this kind of error typically happens when you try to call a
script as if it were a function.
The current development version of Octave produces better error
messages. For example:
octave:1> fooscript ()
error: invalid use of script in index expression
octave:1> fooscript {}
error: invalid use of script in index expression
octave:1> fooscript.m
error: invalid call to script
octave:1>
