https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=248402 --- Comment #5 from Stephen Montgomery-Smith <stephen@FreeBSD.org> --- I do use the math/octave port (albeit on Windows or Linux) when I teach a class "Numerical Linear Algebra." And Matlab is widely used by Engineering schools over the world, and octave is a drop in replacement for Matlab. But do you want it considered educational? Would you consider Mathematica to be educational? If math/octave-froge-ltfat is considered educational, then you could make a case that all the octave* ports are educational, as well as maxima, wxmaxima, sage, and a bunch of other computer algebra systems. For that matter, you could add python, gcc and clang ports as educational, as Computer Science departments the world over use them in classes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.home | help
