Thank you Ivan. I had read that, which is why I had considered using
Octave in the first place. However, there is a difference when
considering an 'alternative' progran for personal use than when one is
instructed to use a particular program and instead uses something
else. I ran into this issue when learning C. Th university tauht Turbo
C, I coded for GCC, and in the end I got a bad (but passing) grade
because my code was not Turbo C compatible.
