To make sure I’m understanding you correctly, you’re saying Matlab is much better at plotting than Octave? I’ve only ever used the latter, so I guess that would be one reason to consider switching to the former.
- _0ffh 6y agoLast time I tried a few years ago, Octave couldn't hold a candle to Matlab's plotting functions. It's a different league.
- rightbyte 6y agoOctave's plots are missing some property editor and GUI tools which can be quite annoying. Like the brush or regression tool.
- tpoacher 6y agoInteresting. My experience has been the exact opposite. The quality of matlab's plots paled compared to that of Octave's.
- _0ffh 6y agoDidn't really notice any major difference in quality... I was talking ease-of-use and richness of options. What quality differences do you refer to?
