„GNU Octave“ yra aukšto lygio kalba, skirta skaičiavimams. Ji suteikia komandinės eilutės aplinką ir leidžia atlikti įvairius skaičiavimus. Ši kalba yra labai gerai suderinta su matematiniu paketu „Matlab“, todėl „Matlab“ skirtos programos puikiai veikia su „Octave“ ir atvirkščiai .„Octave“ moka pavaizduoti ir grafikus. Tam reikia įdiegti „gnuplot“ programą.
English:
High-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations
Octave is a powerful application primarily designed 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.
