Octave Demo

Run octave in an xterm and run the following commands :

		octave:1> x = [1 2 3 4 9 7 3]
		octave:2> x = [1 2 3 4 9 7 3] ;
		octave:3> plot (x)
		octave:4> plot (x, '+')
		octave:5> hold on
		octave:6> plot (x)
		octave:7> 
		octave:7> help plot

We will be using Octave later in this tutorial but first need to set up a the octave resources file in your home directory :

		prompt > cp $HOME/IADSPL/Octave/.octaverc $HOME

If you already have a octave resource file, you may want to back that up before copying the new one into place.
