# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| qtoctave: qtoctave (a qt-based gui for Octave) qtoctave: qtoctave: QtOctave is a graphical user interface for gnu octave, which is an qtoctave: open source program alternative to Matlab. With QtOctave you can do qtoctave: perform computationally intensive mathematical tasks that would take qtoctave: much longer to code in C or C++ or practically any other modern qtoctave: computer language. It is especailly good at matrix and vector qtoctave: operations. The graphical capabilities are very advanced. It is qtoctave: used heavily in engineering, and is a tool well worth learning. qtoctave: qtoctave:
