A new release for GNU Octave
Is GNU Octave still relevant in the fields where it once was considered as a FOSS alternative to MATLAB?<p>Since it seems researchers are migrating away from MATLAB <i>itself</i> to python (numpy/scipy).<p>BTW, GNU Octave is fantastic! You can setup termux ([1]) in your android phone and `apt install octave`. Now you have a portable REPL for many advanced mathematical problems you might face for example in solving homeworks (Singular Value Decomposition, Curve Fitting, etc)<p>[1] <a href="https://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Android" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Android</a>
