Thanks for that point - I didn't realize it. However, Octave is open source, as opposed to Mathematica. On Dec 19, 8:49 pm, Martin Albrecht wrote: > On Thursday 18 December 2008, Alasdair wrote: > > > If your interests are primarily numeric and not symbolic, you could > > also take a look at Oc

If your interests are primarily numeric and not symbolic, you could also take a look at Octave, which is included in Sage, and which aims to be very Matlab-like: sage: octave.eval("y = [3 6 7]") sage: octave.eval("x = [1 2 3]") sage: octave.eval("z = y.*sin(x)") Of course you could always downlo

It should be noted that often the easiest way to get Python with all those modules is to install Sage :). - Robert On Dec 18, 2008, at 2:46 AM, Fernando wrote: > Harald, > > Probably I should start as you suggested installing basic python and > the modules that you list. > > Thanks for your a

Harald, Probably I should start as you suggested installing basic python and the modules that you list. Thanks for your advice, Fernando On Dec 18, 11:29 am, Harald Schilly wrote: > Fernando wrote: > > For those tasks, I usually implement the code using the vectorized > > functionalities of MA
