        Parameters
        ----------
        name: str
            The name of the object in the Octave workspace.
        timemout: float, optional.
            Time to wait for response from Octave (per line).

        Examples
        --------

        >>> octave.eval('foo = [1, 2];')
        >>> ptr = octave.get_pointer('foo')

        -----
        Pointers can be passed to `feval` or dynamic functions as function arguments.  A pointer passed as a nested value will be passed by value instead.

        ------
