The function "extrema" from the matlab file exchange will work in Octave 
exactly as in Matlab.
Unfortunately, even though the author has released this file with a free 
licence, according to the 
terms of use of the matlab file exchange website you are not allowed to use it 
in Octave.
The solution is to ask the author to send you a copy of that file directly or 
to post it on another website.

see for example this very recent thread for more info:
