Several comments may be made about this installation process. The Scilab console is presented in figure 1. Scilab is distributed as a Windows binary and an installer is provided so that the installation is really easy. Compiling Scilab is a process which will not be detailed further in this document, because this chapter is mainly devoted to the external behavior of Scilab. Moreover, a Fortran and a C compiler are required.

To compile Scilab, some prerequisites binary files are necessary, which are also provided in the Download center. Compiling Scilab and generating a binary is especially interesting when we want to understand or debug an existing feature, or when we want to add a new feature. Scilab can also be downloaded in source form, so that you can compile Scilab by yourself and produce your own binary. Scilab binaries are provided for both 32 and 64-bit platforms so that they match the target installation machine. Windows, Linux or Mac), Scilab binaries can be downloaded directly from the Scilab homepage The Xcos environment provides a hybrid dynamic systems modeler and simulator. Scilab provides many graphics features, including a set of plotting functions, which create 2D and 3D plots as well as user interfaces.

Most of the time, the user downloads and installs a binary version of Scilab, since the Scilab consortium provides Windows, Linux and Mac OS executable versions.

The software is distributed with source code, so that the user has an access to Scilab’s most internal aspects.

Scilab also interfaces LabVIEW, a platform and development environment for a visual programming language from National Instruments.įrom the license point of view, Scilab is a free software in the sense that the user does not pay for it and Scilab is an open source software, provided under the Cecill license. The Scilab language can dynamically compile and link other languages such as Fortran and C: this way, external libraries can be used as if they were a part of Scilab built-in features. Scilab users can develop their own modules so that they can solve their particular problems. The Scilab language is meant to be extended so that user-defined data types can be defined with possibly overloaded operations. This generally speeds up the development process, because the user directly accesses a high-level language, with a rich set of features provided by the library. Scilab is a programming language associated with a rich collection of numerical algorithms covering many aspects of scientific computing problems.įrom the software point of view, Scilab is an interpreted language. The scripts are available under the CeCiLL licence:

The Scilab scripts are provided on the Forge, inside the project, under the scripts sub-directory. The LATEX sources are provided under the terms of the Creative Commons AttributionShareAlike 3.0 Unported License: The LATEX sources are available on the Scilab Forge: Finally, we take a moment to look at the demonstrations which are provided with Scilab. We describe the built-in help pages and analyse the mailing lists and wiki which are available online. In the remaining subsections, we describe various sources of information needed when we have to get some help from Scilab or from other users.

In the third subsection, we describe the methods to download and install Scilab on Windows, GNU/Linux and Mac operating systems. Then we present the software, licence and scientific aspects of Scilab. The first subsection introduces the open source project associated with the creation of this document.

In this section, we present an overview of Scilab.
