MATLAB Running MATLAB Programs in Octave

AI Thread Summary
To run MATLAB programs in Octave, users can execute .m files similarly to how they would in MATLAB. Key resources include the Octave FAQ, which outlines major compatibility differences between Octave and MATLAB, and guides on running scripts. However, users should note that certain MATLAB toolboxes and pre-compiled functions may not be compatible with Octave. For detailed instructions, users can refer to the provided links for FAQs and script execution guidance.

Hello to all

I downloaded Octave. I read that it will run MATLAB programs, but how do you do that?

Thanks

If you're talking about .m files (MATLAB scripts), there's a page in the FAQ that lists the major differences (found from a Google search for 'Octave MATLAB compatibility'):
http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/FAQ.html#MATLAB-compatibility

If you're talking about how to actually run your scripts (it's basically the same as in MATLAB), this page should help you out in that area (found from a Google search for 'running octave scripts').

If you're talking about MATLAB toolboxes and other pre-compiled stuff, you may be SOL ('Short on' Luck)
