Please keep the octave mailing list in CC.
Please copy your script to the mail and send it or upload it to a
place like https://bpaste.net/
I did not read the script in detail, but please do notice that you are
writing a line for every row of input1.
You can just do
input1(:,1) + input1(:,2)
to add the two columns or just
sum (input, 2)

I think that you should try to follow some tutorials online or read
more Octave code examples.
