This page describes an example of how to call liboctave functions from a Fortran program. In the example we will load an Octave array from a file in Octave's native ASCII format, it consists of two steps:
- write a C++ function with a C compatible interface and C linkage that reads a variable from an Octave ASCII file
- write Fortran code using the "iso_c_binding" intrinsic module to call the C++ function
