Description : 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.
