Academic Software - Relevant LinksAs a service to the community, I'm listing some relevant links related to Matlab, math, algebra, programming or science topics. Very good academic software resources. Mathworks http://www.mathworks.com/ (opens a new window) The Matlab creators' official site. Includes file exchange (files contributed by users of MATLAB, Simulink, and related products), newsgroup (an open forum for everyone in the MATLAB and Simulink universe), blogs (commentaries from the people who design and build MathWorks products), and more... Octave http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/ (opens a new window) GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It is an excellent academic software, since it provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language... Scilab http://www.scilab.org/ (opens a new window) Scilab is a scientific software package for numerical computations providing a powerful open computing environment for engineering and scientific applications. Scilab is an open source software... Freemat http://freemat.sourceforge.net/ (opens a new window) FreeMat is a free environment for rapid engineering and scientific prototyping and data processing. It is similar to commercial systems such as MATLAB from Mathworks, and IDL from Research Systems, but is Open Source. FreeMat is available under the GPL license... Geogebra http://www.geogebra.org/ (opens a new window) GeoGebra is dynamic mathematics software for all levels of education that joins arithmetic, geometry, algebra and calculus. It offers multiple representations of objects in its graphics, algebra, and spreadsheet views that are all dynamically linked. The idea behind GeoGebra is to connect geometric, algebraic, and numeric representations in an interactive way. You can do constructions with points, vectors, lines, conic sections as well as functions and change them dynamically afterwards... From 'Academic Software' to home
