What you need for this book

If you use Windows, you basically only need to have a full version of GNU Octave installed on your computer. For GNU/Linux, you may need a plotting program like gnuplot, a Fortran and C/C++ compiler like gcc, and the GNU make utility; fortunately these are standard packages on almost all GNU/Linux distributions. In Chapter 1, it will be shown how you install GNU Octave under Windows and GNU/Linux.
