Octave

[eugenio.pariani]

Hello

 

I’m a beginner in the use of the SW Octave ed. for windows 3.8 and I have a short question which could be related to my no-experience.
I tried to start introducing this simple command

>> input (“a number”)
a number100  (of course 100 was written by me)
ans = [](0×0)
>>
I was expecting (reading the manual):
>> input (“a number”)
a number100
ans = 100
>>
Where is my mistake? Would you help me?

Thanks in advance
Eugenio
