Calling the function is easy, you would typically use "feval" defined in parse.h. However, the biggest problem is how to create and initialize the octave interpreter. And this depends on your application. If you want to call it from a MEX or OCT file, then you don't need to do anything. If you want to call octave from another application, then you would typically create the octave interpreter in embedded mode, which is what the link mentioned by Carlo is about. This is probably the simplest example of embedding octave into an external application.
