Common tasks in 6.302 using Octave, Scilab, and Matlab
This document describes how to perform common tasks in 6.302 using Octave, Scilab, and Matlab. The first two software packages are free alternatives to Matlab, and their use is encouraged.
Speed in choosing a data analysis software.
Speed of execution is an important aspect in choosing a data analysis software. Since it can vary from a factor 10, or more, on the same computer, this can make the difference between a quick-reacting package and another one that seems to takes hours to c

Scilab is a scientific software package for numerical computations providing a powerful open computing environment for engineering and scientific applications. Developed since 1990 by researchers from INRIA and ENPC, it is now maintained and developed by
Matlab Clones
Matlabâ„¢ has become the de facto standard for DSP system design and simulation. However, Matlab has two problems: 1) it's expensive, and 2) it costs a lot. Fortunately, there are alternatives: Free Clones. Whatever else you can say about them, these Free
