Hello - - -
I need to find and download one of the free numerical-analysis-
software, to solve blocks of non-linear algebraic equations.
None of the sites I've researched gives any idea of how
difficult or easy any of these systems are to actually use. I'm
hoping that some of you have experience with one or more of
these softwares and can help me out.
Ie: Once set up, are they straightforward to use or do I need to
have a genius programmer/hacker at my elbow to continually
stay my hand from hideous error and blowing up the program?!
I've studied some general articles on the net. Wikipedia has
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_numerical_analysis_software
which is a list of lots of the mathware that are available, like
GNU Octave, Perl Data Language and FreeMat. Also
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_numerical_analysis_software
gives a brief and, IMHO, inadequate comparison of some of
those mathware.
So you want to find something to use that
is free, and easy enough/trivial to use by
anyone with no prior expertise in the area,
yet is also powerful enough to solve any
problem that you will choose to throw at
it?
Yeah right.
John
