Sentinel error occurred while executing oct2py in python for running octave script #185

I am trying to use oct2py to run octave script(.m file) in python. here is the code

import os 
os.environ['OCTAVE_EXECUTABLE'] = ('C:\\Program Files\\GNU Octave\\Octave-6.2.0\\mingw64\\bin\\octave-cli.exe')
import oct2py
out = oct2py.Oct2Py()
out.source('main.m')

it runs my .m file and shows the results also but after that I receive following error.

error: 'sentinel' undefined near line 99, column 99
error: called from
    _pyeval at line 99 column 10

whats going wrong here?

So I found out that this error occurs when we have clear all command in our ".m" file

Yes you are right, removing the clear all statement from the above code removed the conflict/error that I was getting but the problem is that the output of the .m file is for few seconds only after few seconds it disappears, I don't know why.
