WebOctave
What is Octave?
Octave is a Open Source Software , which allows the user to perform typical numerical calculations, such as finding solutions to systems of nonlinear equations, scientific visualization, etc.
What is Weboctave?
Web Interface to Octave lets people use Octave remotely. The user sends the commands to a remote server, next all required computation is done on the server, and finally the user is presented with the results (text or graphics).
Features
