I teach a numerical methods class, based on Octave only. Some students use
Matlab without major problems.
If the sample a set up with a little (very little) attention to the difference,
both programs work.
Make sure you are using Octave 3.0.* , otherwise the plot commands will be
different
With best reagards

I am taking a numerical analysis course at my university. We have been
recommended to use Matlab. Is Octave considered a viable alternative
for a university course? I understand that Octave is _mostly_ Matlab
compatible but I am not familiar enough with either Matlab or Octave
to make an informed decision.
