* Did you ever hear about Octave before?


** If so, when and where? How far have you been involved already?
* '''Did you ever hear about Octave before?'''
:: -Yes I have heard about Octave before. I heard about Octave about an year ago when my college coursework required me to code assignments in MATLAB but I decided to search for an open source alternative.

** If not, where would you expect or advise us to do advertising?
:: -I have heard about Octave but I really would like to suggest the Octave community to advertise their software among college students like me, who require to use MATLAB or a similar tool for their coursework. This is because, I personally believe that every student should be introduced to the world of Open Source. I am doing something like that already, owing to my love for open source and free software, I have been trying to persuade my teachers to make use of Octave on our college systems and ask the students to use Octave more.


* What was the first question concerning Octave you could not find an answer to rather quickly?

:: -I got most of my questions answered online or on the IRC channel itself. This may be a negative, but I keep asking till I have an answer so I haven't really encountered a situation when my question was not answered.
