Follow-up Comment #2:

It seems you just have more output than will fit on a single screen, and
Octave is passing the result through the PAGER to help you wade through the
data.

To confirm, open Octave and try


z = rand (1000, 1);


which will produce a thousand numbers in a column vector which should be more
than will fit on one screen.

See the documentation on multi-page output:
https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Paging-Screen-Output.html

Simple solutions are to disable the pager entirely with 'more off' or
configure the pager to behave as you like.
