Hi All, I regularly work on repeating the results in IEEE papers, ie playing with applied mathematics. So far I have tried Octave, Scilab and Scipy.
When mathematics is your concern, let me be very frank, none of the above come any where near Matlab for the reasons 1. Incredibly good documentation 2. Tool boxes 3. Visualisation If Matlab is the reason that somebody is still using Windows, I would strongly recommend to go for Linux version of Matlab. Still one need windows version of Matlab to work with real time video. And the licensed copies in engineering colleges do not have all tool boxes, as tool boxes are pretty costly, that people resort to using the pirated copy even though they have a licensed copy. If there are engineering college teachers in the mailing list, you may think of allotting fund towards buying a few copies of Linux version of Matlab to encourage Mathworks in making the Linux version uptodate. For those lab experiments in the syllabus, I would recommend SciPy and really good if we can have a two days sprint to code all those lab experiments in SciPy and document it online. Jemshid PS: Piracy is out of the scope of the mailing list. Mail me directly. On 5 August 2012 18:07, Jyothish Kumar <[email protected]> wrote: > Oh Thanks for the information.
