basic octree

I have been given a project recently which involoves basic graphics and uses an octree method of subdivision. I have done plenty of research on octree and understand how it works but I can not program octree graphics myself! Every time I look for sample code all i find is very confusing code used for computer games which is still a little beyond me! Is there anyway i can look at code of simple cube broken down to smaller cubes in an octree style. I am doing the project in c++ and am struggling to come up with any coding which gives me this octree partitioning.
Can anyone help me?.....please
