CHANGES
Latest upstream release.
https://octave.org/news/release/2023/11/05/octave-8.4.0-released.html
GENERAL NOTE
there are 2 octave main binaries with multiple graphic properties
octave command line with full plotting capabilities
octave --gui graphical interface
octave-cli command line inteface with plotting
restricted to fltk and gnuplot toolkits
Of the 3 graphics toolkit fltk, gnuplot and qt
fltk is the worst performing on cygwin
gnuplot the lightest
qt the most graphic rich
OCTAVE-FORGE NOTE
You need to install with setup the specific forge package
you are looking for.
The update of the global pkg database is managed
by cygwin setup during the postinstall phase.
A semaphore system is in place to update the database only when needed
and just one time, also when multiple forge packages are added or removed.
DESCRIPTION
Octave language is "Scientific Programming Language" with:
- Powerful mathematics-oriented syntax with built-in 2D/3D
plotting and visualization tools
- Drop-in compatible with many Matlab scripts
- Solve systems of equations with linear algebra operations on
vectors and matrices.
- Visualize data with high-level plot commands in 2D and 3D.
The Octave syntax is largely compatible with Matlab. The Octave
interpreter can be run in GUI mode, as a console, or invoked as
part of a shell script. More Octave examples can be found in the
Octave wiki.
