Why use matlab? octave is almost perfectly compatible. I read all the cheezy functions that came with my Digital Signal Processing course text almost straight out - just had to strip some junk off the end of the first line of each m file (There is probably a filter to do this, though it was a strange problem I've not seen before, not staircase effect, but something else. ah the vagaries which MS can induce on even a thing as simple as a text file).
There are a few functions like subplot that older versions of gnuplot doesn't do (though I have heard the latest version does) but you can call gnuplot functions directly if you want which gives you a lot of control over plotting that you don't get with matlab. There is also another thing out there scilab but I don't like it as much. It is less compatible (different comment syntax for example), and in this case the commercial application actually did come first, and is pretty much a de facto standard for signal processing. It is not a rip off like pspice, so it is good to clone it faithfully. On Fri, 21 Nov 1997, Bill Moran wrote: > > Hi > > I am tryng to get matlab 5 working on my Toshiba laptop.
