| 7 GNU Octave strives to be among the very best numerical tools | |
| 8 available. While compatibility with Matlab is one of many strong | |
| 9 features of Octave, we have not achieved 100% compatibility. If | |
| 10 you are reading this page, it is most likely because you attempted | |
| 11 to use a function that is part of core Matlab, but has yet to be | |
| 12 implemented in Octave. | |
| 13 | |
| 14 There can be several reasons for the given function not to exist | |
| 15 in Octave: | |
| 16 | |
| 17 <ul> | |
| 18 <li> | |
| 19 The function may exist | |
| 20 in <a href="http://octave.sourceforge.net">Octave-Forge</a>, but | |
| 21 has not yet been adopted as a part of the core Octave | |
| 22 distribution. You can try to look for your function in | |
| 23 the <a href="http://octave.sourceforge.net/functions_by_alpha.php">alphabetical | |
| 24 list of functions</a> at the Octave-Forge web site to see if it | |
| 25 is available in some package. | |
| 26 </li> | |
| 27 <li> | |
| 28 The function may be new to Matlab. It is possible that the Octave | |
| 29 community simply does not know it exists. Should this be the case, | |
| 30 feel free to open a feature request in the | |
| 31 <a href="http://bugs.octave.org">Octave bug tracker</a>. | |
| 32 </li> | |
| 33 </ul> | |
| 34 | |
| 35 The Octave community consists of volunteers working in their spare | |
| 36 time. As a result, development might sometimes not be fast enough for | |
| 37 your needs. If you have a feature request for Octave, the best way to | |
| 38 ensure that your suggested improvement gets incorporated is either to | |
| 39 implement the feature yourself or to pay somebody to do it for you. | |
