Wait, wait -- I know this!  :-)  I just learned how to do this
yesterday.  Do (for example):

Save -ascii "c:/tmp/MyFile.txt" MyMatrix

(where MyMatrix is the matrix you want to output).  This is obviously in
Windows but should be similar in *nixes.  "help save" will give you more
information.  You can also do:

Save -text "c:/tmp/MyFile.txt" MyMatrix

which gives a text file with some possibly useful headers and a
different (Octave) format.

Octave will easily do the integration for you, and plot the result too.
I was putting the data into Excel to send to a colleague who doesn't
have Octave or Matlab.

Regards,
Allen
