The dendrogram function of matlab is in Matlabs statistics toolbox.
Octave has no dendrogram function at all. I suspect that dendrog is a
function that you have on your disk that is neither Matlab's or
Octave's. What does "which dendrog" give? If the license permits you
need to share both the dendrog script and a a data set to use with it
for anyone here to be able to help debug your problem..
