- GNU Octave is software featuring a high-level programming language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a command-line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with MATLAB. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language.
It is part of the GNU Project, it is free software under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
Octave is one of the major free alternatives to MATLAB, others being Julia and Scilab. These however put less emphasis on (bidirectional) syntactic compatibility with MATLAB than Octave does.

- QUOTE: GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable.
