I have observed the following akward behavior of the bar plot command in
Octave. I run the following demo code:


clear, close all

data = [10 2 10 10 10];

bar(data)
hold on
bar(2, data(2))


And I get a figure with a bar plot, where the second bar has a much bigger
width compared to the other four bars in the plot. This second bar even covers
some of its two neighboring bars.

I consider this imperfect plotting behavior of Octave, especially because in
Matlab the same code gives me a plot with five nice bars of the very same
width.
