In a sense, Octave, as Matlab, does not have either row or column vectors, nor 
it has scalars, it just uses 2-index matrices for all those types.
You might consider this a very exotic and probably annoying (and maybe even 
stupid) design choice, and I might even, partly, agree.
But it is at the very root of the design of the Matlab language, so it cannot 
be abandoned. 
The best option, if you cannot live with the way data-types are used in 
Octave/Matlab, is to switch to a different language.
