Worked for all of my Coursera (Everything Is The Same) MATLAB homework problems. I didn't use it during the course, but I tested all of my required MATLAB scripts with FreeMat. There were some variants of MATLAB functions that aren't compatible, and I found one MATLAB function that isn't supported in FreeMat, but none of these exceptions were required for the course. Another important plus is that you don't have to jump through so many hoops to install FreeMat, as you do with Octave. FreeMat is free, easy to install and use, and is compatible enough for everything that I've needed thus far.

I've just tried the OS X version. There are some problems that make it unusable: - no Preferences dialog in the application menu. - I couldn't find a way to save the default script folder configuration (yet) - no Window menu, making it unwieldy to switch between all the Matlab-style windows (main, scripts, graphs). - MIGHT BE MY HARDWARE, but the plots take too much time to zoom in. So regrettably, I'm going to give it a thumbs down and choose something else until these features are fixed. Some good points: - graphic user interface, not Terminal. Very good. - easy to use interface, other than the mentioned problems.

Absolutely grandiose: while it is not the most comprehensive mathematical engine around, it's the best you can get for free. Neat job folks!

Good job.

Very interesting alternative to replace basic Matlab: light, free and able to make graphic.

this program is incredible to use and the best Matlab replacement available. The only complaint I have is that is very hard to build from sources but there are binary distributions for new users
