Loading function files in Scilab

I am new to Scilab, but I do have MatLab and Octave experience. I'm just starting to write custom functions and when I try to load them into Scilab, I get the following error.

!--error 10000 
listvarinfile: Wrong variable type (1.686D+08) found in '<pathname>\test.sci'. File may be wrong or corrupted.
at line      50 of function listvarFunction called by :  
at line      29 of function listvarinfile called by :  
at line     949 of function %_sodload called by :  
<pathname>\test.sci'

In this case the test file was pretty simple:

function [x]=test(y)

x = y*y;

endfunction

saved with the .sci extension.

The function was loaded from the IDE by right clicking on the file and choosing the Load into Scilab option.

I had more complex examples but decided to write this since they were not loading either.

Thanks for your help.

Just as user2240469 said, but you can do this in the console. See also the documentation of exec.

 // Use -1 as mode to prevent printing everything in the console
 -->exec('test.sci',-1)

 -->test(4)

 ans = 

 16.

Unlike in Matlab, in scilab you need run the function.

Just run the function first and then call it in the console .

test(4)

ans =

16.
