Its website is here: >http://www.octave.org/ that is strange, i always thought that octave was the name of the big sgi box. havent these gnu guys been accused by sgi yet? thank you for the link, but i dont like it. it is to much like fortran for me. they say that when you know fortran you can learn octave in a few hours. i think fortrans time is over. and besides, what shall my professor say when i come up with a fortran program?
