==FreeBSD==
For other Unix systems you may have to [[Building|build Octave from source]].
If you're running FreeBSD you have two options: you can build from source (via ports) or get the precompiled package:
 
== FreeBSD ==
 
The easiest way to obtain GNU Octave is to install the precompiled package as root user:
 
pkg_add -r octave
 
Another possibility is to build Octave from source via Ports<ref>https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/math/octave</ref>. Make sure you have your Port tree updated. Check [https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html FreeBSD documentation] about how to do that. Then, as root, type:  


*Using ports:
Make sure you have your port tree updated. Check FreeBSD documentation about how to do that. Then, as root, type:
  cd /usr/ports/math/octave  
  cd /usr/ports/math/octave  
  make install clean  
  make install clean  


After a while you should have your octave ready to use.
Some [[Octave Forge]] packages can be installed in the same way:


*Using packages:
  pkg_add -r octave-forge
As root type:
  pkg_add -r octave  
If everything goes fine, it'll fetch the package and install it.


Either way it may also be a good idea to install the package called "octave-forge"
or via Ports<ref>https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/math/octave-forge</ref>.

Octave can be installed on OpenBSD by installing the precompiled package
The easiest way to obtain GNU Octave is to install the precompiled package as root user:
or by building from source.
 
pkg_add octave
 
Another possibility is to build Octave from source via Ports<ref>http://openports.se/math/octave</ref>.

The Octave package for OpenBSD is currently at version 3.0.5. Install it

as root:

Building from source on OpenBSD takes a bit of work at the moment, see
