Description-en: Scientific software package for numerical computations
Scilab is a matrix-based scientific software package.
Scilab contains hundreds of built-in mathematical functions, rich
data structures (including polynomials, rationals, linear systems, lists,
etc...) and comes with a number of specific toolboxes for control, signal
processing, ...
.
This package also provides Xcos, a graphical editor to design hybrid
dynamical systems models. Models can be designed, loaded, saved, compiled and
simulated.
Stable and efficient solution for industrial and academics needs, Xcos
provides functionalities for modeling of mechanical systems (automotive,
aeronautics...), hydraulic circuits (dam, pipe modeling...), control systems,
etc. Modelica capabilities are also provided.
.
For a minimum version of scilab, install package "scilab-cli".
