Thank you for the help. I will use it as it works clearly clearly well. 

Following exchange you have with Juan Pechiar related to the way the output 
is displayed, I would like to submit the following examples :

First test :

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

#+tblname: test
| 1 | 2 | 3 |

#+source: outtest
#+begin_src octave  :session *out*   :var vec=test :results value vector
vecb=[vec];
ans=vecb;
#+end_src

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The output is the following :


#+results: outtest
| 1.00000000e+000 2.00000000e+000 3.00000000e+000 |


It is considered as one character and each element are not clearly
splitted in table. Certainly handled as string as Juan Pechiar.


Second test :

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

#+tblname: test
| 1 | 2 | 3 |

#+source: outtestb
#+begin_src octave  :session *out*   :var vec=test :results value vector
vecb=[vec;vec];
ans=vecb;
#+end_src

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The output is the following :

#+results: outtestb
| 1.00000000e+000 | 2.00000000e+000 | 3.00000000e+000 |
| 1.00000000e+000 | 2.00000000e+000 | 3.00000000e+000 |

This time output is splitted in a table as it should be ?
