calling Octave from Python

Hmm, I don't know, I've never tried to call Octave from Python.  In Bash
scripts I often use things like

    for n in 1 2 3
        do
        echo "disp ($n);" | octave -q
    done

I presume there's a similar facility for system calls in Python.

Better pass this one to the help mailing list.

for a collection of tips on interfacing Octave with other languages.
