GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical
|
|
computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for
|
|
solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing
|
|
other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible
|
|
with Matlab. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language.
|
|
|
|
Octave has extensive tools for solving common numerical linear algebra
|
|
problems, finding the roots of nonlinear equations, integrating
|
|
ordinary functions, manipulating polynomials, and integrating ordinary
|
|
differential and differential-algebraic equations. It is easily extensible
|
|
and customizable via user-defined functions written in Octave's own
|
|
language, or using dynamically loaded modules written in C++, C, Fortran,
|
|
or other languages.
