Can I install program like Octave on my directory in my web host? Well, installing that should be as simple as typing urpmi octave if you have sources defined properly. I believe it is in contrib. There are some similar programs in contrib as well -- for instance macsyma, but that's old and rather clunky compared to something like Mathematica. Of course, you get what you pay for. Of course, I lack sufficient skill to make much use of the software (not math expert) but macsyma seemed rather capable when I tried it out, despite the clunkiness, which is much nicer if you use the X interface rather than the command line. I'm not sure how web host enters into this. Are you trying to have some kind of Web interfacing to Octave? Or, are you just trying to install the program somewhere else? If the latter, it is possible, provided you have permission somewhere to write the package to. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

In some cases you are permitted and able to install software yourself from a shell account (if you have one), in other cases they need to do it for you.
