Good catch. I renamed the variable to 'b'. This should be part of the 3.8.2 bug fix release, although it might make it into the 3.8.3 release instead. The changeset that fixes it is here (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/f6468b8c6a74).

Online documentation entry in question:

https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Interacting-with-Plots.html#XREFwaitforbuttonpress

The example states: a = waitforbuttonpress ()

But in the text it says "The return value of b is 0" although a is meant.
