Re: flops

[José Colmenares]

Hi everyone:

I'm aware that the newest versions of matlab don't use flops() anymore. The 
reason why i'm looking for a similar function in octave is basically this: 
I'm a geophysics engineer currently  working towards a master's degree in 
applied math in Venezuela. A friend of mine told me about octave, so I 
installed a few weeks ago and so far I find it great. But I must do certain 
assigments in wich an aproximation of the floating points operations done is 
requiered. I do not want to use matlab, for I don't see any reason to do 
so... but it seems like i'd have to switch to windows after i finish 
everything and run the asigment on an old version of matlab to obtain the 
flops. is there anything i can use in octave ?

Thanks for your quick response on my last mail.

Jose Colmenares.
