Octave for other Unix systems
For other Unix systems you may have to Build from source.
FreeBSD
If you're running FreeBSD you have two options: you can build from source (via ports) or get the precompiled package:
- 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 make install clean
After a while you should have your octave ready to use.
- Using packages:
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"
