Let me put in a recommendation for python / scipy / numpy / matplotlib as a
replacement for Matlab or octave. I used Matlab as a student and octave
since, and they do their job well, but the python tools have the advantage
of a better, more modular, less idiosyncratic language.
The scipy project,

I think you have it backwards. The purpose of Matlab and things like it
is NOT to save computer time. It is to have enginerring man hours. For
example a problem can be coded in two hours in Matlib that would take me a
week to code in C. But then when you run the software the C coded

An semester or two with linear algebra is an good start, but the homepage
of matlab have an excelent learning section.
No experience with Octave yet.
MIT OCW (open courseware) have lectures on linear algebra, in addition to
most of the other courses offered at MIT.

The tutorials that come as part of the octave documentation
package are quite good.
