PortSystem 1.0

Name: octave
Version: 3.2.2
Category: math science
Maintainers: alakazam stechert
Platform: darwin
Description: a Matlab-like environment for numerical analysis
Long Description: Octave provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It is easily extensible and customizable via user-defined functions or using dynamically loaded modules written in e.g. C++, C or Fortran.

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/octave
%  sudo port install octave  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching octave
--->  Verifying checksum for octave
--->  Extracting octave
--->  Configuring octave
--->  Building octave with target all

--->  Staging octave into destroot

--->  Installing octave

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using octave with these commands:

%  man octave
%  apropos octave
%  which octave
%  locate octave
