If you want to understand why Octave crashed, then run it under a
debugger, or if you are on a Unixy system, set the corefile limit in
your shell so that a process core file will be generated.  As Jaroslav
said, the octave-core file contains your top-level workspace variables
at the time of the crash.

If Octave crashes, there is a bug.  If you think the bug is in Octave
(and not some .oct file that you have written, for example) then you
should send a complete bug report to the address@hidden mailing list.
But first, you should read http://www.octave.org/bugs.html to see what
information you should include in your report so that it is useful.
