Depending on what you mean, Yes. I've had experience with octave and the
NAG C libraries. If you mean some Frankenstein build of octave with NAG
then, no I've only used them as separate projects.  When I used NAG I
was tormented by their documentation.  I switched to the GNU Science
Library ( GSL ) which does almost everything NAG does but also has
understandable documentation. Somehow combining octave and GSL seems
very sane, wrapper functions and such. Their both GPL at least.
