How to Install Octave
GNU Octave is a numerically oriented high level mathematical programming language. It is useful for science, engineering and maths, and it is mostly compatible with matlab. [1]
The following is a list of the steps I followed to install Octave on the Maemo 5 SDK:
- Compile and Install Gnuplot
- Compile and Install f2c
- Compile and Install fort77
- Compile and Install GNU Octave
The information used for installation can be found here:
