# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

octave: GNU Octave (Matlab clone)
octave:
octave: GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical
octave: computations.  It provides a convenient command line interface for
octave: solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing
octave: other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible
octave: with Matlab.  It may also be used as a batch-oriented language.
