strcmp with cell array does not work

[ash]

Hi all.

I have two cell-arrays of strings and I need to compare them.
they are :

 hdr.x
ans = 
{
  [1,1] = aaa

  [2,1] = abc

  [3,1] = cde

  [4,1] = efg

  [5,1] = sdfg

  [6,1] = sd34

}

octave:16> hdr.y
hdr.y = 
{
  [1,1] = sdfg
  [2,1] = yyy
  [3,1] = rrr
  [4,1] = erty6
}

when i use strcmp(hdr.y,hdr.x(5))
it returns 0. why, if the first element of hdr.y is the same of the fifth of
hdr.x ?

If i use strcmp(hdr.y(1),hdr.x(5)) it returns 0 again!
I'm confused.
The same strcmp with the same arrays in matlab seem to work.

Octave version 3.6.1
