I cannot create a table using matlab's documentation example

I am using Matlab version 2018b.

I am trying to create a table using Matlab's own example, for example:

sz = [4 3];
varTypes = {'double','datetime','string'};
T = table('Size',sz,'VariableTypes',varTypes)

I get the following error:

Subscripting a table using linear indexing (one subscript) or multidimensional indexing (three or more subscripts) is not supported. Use a row subscript and a
variable subscript.

That runs for me without error.

Check to see if you have a variable called ‘table’:

which table -all

the only results should be:

C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019b\toolbox\matlab\datatypes\@table\table.m  % table constructor
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019b\toolbox\matlab\bigdata\@tall\table.m     % Shadowed tall method

If the first entry is:

table is a variable.

you have found the problem. The solution is to re-name the variable.
