How to install program game with scilab successfully?
Hello Samantha,
Scilab is mainly used for mathematical computations. It’s like excel for Linux but with a bit of SPSS. It is rich in data types, integrated graphics and it has a large library. However, it has a poor user-interface and it only supports static libraries.
To install Scilab,
· Download it from their website
· Save the file to your desktop and extract by right clicking the saved file. you could also use this syntax if you are using Terminal $HOME/Desktop/ ; tar xzvf scilab-5.1.bin.linux-i686.tar.gz
· To launch the program, you have two options:
1. Run this [$SHELL] cd <scilab-path>/scilab-5.3.3
[$SHELL] ./bin/scilab
2. Go to Application>>edit menus>>education>>new item>>type “scilab”>>command “/opt/scilab-version”>>comment “matrix scientific software. A dialog box appears. Copy the scilab.xpm icon to the navigation bar. You can then start scilab under /application/education/scilab.
