The recommended way for installing Octave on GNU/Linux systems is via each distribution's package installation system. If this is for some reason not possible, or the available Octave version too old, consider using a [[#Distribution_independent|distribution independent]] approach described below.

Octave is available as a Docker container on [https://hub.docker.com/r/mtmiller/octave mtmiller/octave Docker Hub]. Using Docker, Octave can be run in a well-defined, minimal GNU/Linux container (sandbox). It can be used as a standard interactive Octave shell or to run scripts, but it may be mostly of interest to developers for use in automated build, test, or CI environments.
