hi,
Could gretl do numerical integration? just as R's "integrate".

In general, no. It is quite unusual in econometrics that you need to
integrate generic functions. Of course, we could provide such a facility,
if you give us a convincing argument for that.
That said, we do have the quadtable() function, that you can use for
comuputing definite integrals quickly and efficiently in some special
cases, which are the most commonly ones encountered in econometrics.
