octave gnuplot throws a no data error on plot command

Question

Typing in the command plot 100 returns the following error error: plot: no data to plot error: called from: error: /usr/local/octave/3.8.0/share/octave/3.8.0/m/plot/draw/private/__plt__.m at line 126, column 11 error: /usr/local/octave/3.8.0/share/octave/3.8.0/m/plot/draw/plot.m at line 220, column 10

I have modified my octave by putting in the following environment variable within octaverc. setenv("GNUTERM","x11"). The graph does actually come up when the plot command is called, but there is no data displayed.

This error is expected, since plot 100 is not a valid use of plot.

You can also try demo plot to get examples.

This. Your test invocation should be plot (100).
