sci-mathematics/octave Package Details

Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language.

opengl: Add support for OpenGL (3D graphics)
portaudio: Add support for the crossplatform portaudio audio API
postscript: Enable support for the PostScript language (often with ghostscript-gpl or libspectre)
qhull: Add support for media-libs/qhull, to allow `delaunay', `convhull', and related functions
qrupdate: Add support for sci-libs/qrupdatefor QR and Cholesky update functions

sndfile: Add support for libsndfile
sparse: Add enhanced support for sparse matrix algebra with SuiteSparse
ssl: Add support for SSL/TLS connections (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security)
static-libs: Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well
zlib: Add support for zlib (de)compression
