[http://www.octave.org GNU Octave] is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. GNU Octave is normally used through its interactive interface (CLI and GUI), but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The GNU Octave language is quite similar to MATLAB® so that most programs are easily portable.

=== Plotting tutorial ===
=== [[:Category:Resources|Tutorials/Examples]] ===
All or most of the information about plotting in Octave can be found in the manual and on the internet. This information can be too scattered over different resources for a new user to find his/her way into solving a plotting problem/need. This tutorial should be considered as the 'recipe text' by examples if you consider the manual as a 'recipe ingredients only'.
* [[Recap of the hierarchy of each plot element]]
* [[The order of the commands matter sometimes]]
* [[Changing text elements (label, title)]]
* [[More control over subplots]]
* [[Enable "linestyle" functionality for Gnuplot's x11 terminal]]
