    Frequently asked questions about Octave (with answers)

    Preface

    This is a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ) for Octave users.

    Some information in this FAQ was written for earlier versions of Octave and may now be obsolete.

    I'm looking for new questions (with answers), better answers, or both. Please send suggestions to bug@octave.org. If you have general questions about Octave, or need help for something that is not covered by the Octave manual or the FAQ, please use the help@octave.org mailing list.

    This FAQ is intended to supplement, not replace, the Octave manual. Before posting a question to the help-octave mailing list, you should first check to see if the topic is covered in the manual.
