Indeed the text is wrong.  It was already reported and fixed here (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50524).  It will be a part of the 4.2.2 bug fix release expected at the end of the year.

In https://octave.sourceforge.io/octave/function/eig.html the documentation for eig function it says:

"Compute the right eigenvalues(V) and optionally the eigenvectors(lambda) and the left eigenvalues(W) of a matrix or a pair of matrices."

I think V are the eigenvectors and lambda the eigenvalues, while W are eigenvectors too.
