Description

GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language.

Usage

Pull (Download)

To download the latest version of octave run,

Mounting volumes between the container and your machine

To access files from your machine within the octave container you’ll have to mount them using the -v external/path:internal/path option.

For example,

docker run -v ~/Documents/Data:/Data ghcr.io/autamus/octave octave /Data/myData.csv

which will mount the ~/Documents/Data directory on your computer to the /Data directory within the container.
