Mmm I reproduced the same phenomena on other PC

'nchoosek' is a function from the file

Additional help for built-in functions and operators is
available in the online version of the manual.  Use the command
'doc <topic>' to search the manual index.

Help and information about Octave is also available on the WWW

The issue seems to depend on the environments.

Perhaps it is a bug.

Before registering to bug tracker, I would like to know this is know issue on 
32 bit octave-4.0.1 for windows?
