Hi. First, many thanks to Bill L. and jwe for their help with solving
lin sys and plotting yesterday; I feel I learnt a lot. (I have another
plotting question, but I'll ask that later.) This morning, I'd like to
ask about saving my work.
For example, in Maple one can save a "worksheet" that can be opened
later and executed. Is this possible in Octave? The manual speaks to
saving and loading on pp. 113ff and I tried "save -ascii
~/Desktop/test.oct", but the saved file doesn't appear to be what I
want. (BTW, what filename extension should I use when saving an Octave
file? As you can see, I used ".oct", but is there a more appropriate
one?)
My current workaround is to copy my commands from Octave into a text
editor to save them and to copy from the text editor into Octave to
reuse them, but is there a better way?
TIA.
---John.
