This sounds like homework, so I will not work the problem for you.

A suggestion.

Create the file xx.m containing

A=argv();
disp(size(A,1));
disp(typeinfo(A));
for idx=1:size(A,1)
  disp(cstrcat("argument number ",num2str(idx)," is ",A{idx,1}));
endfor;

And, try

octave --no-init-file --no-gui /tmp/xx.m arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 5 6 7 8
