Octave scripting

[i.mehrzad]

Can i type a Octave script in a editor and then execute it in the octave terminal. How do you do it, what is the extension?

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but if you add this line to the top of your octave script:

#! /bin/octave -qf

you can execute the script without invoking octave. It basically just becomes the same thing as a python or shell program.

You can also access command line arguments from your script using the variable argv().

That should give you a good start to do some more research.
