Hello Rob,

does it have to be Matlab? According to the Numerical Analysis and 
Associated Fields Resource Guide there are several clones out
there in the free software pool. Good ones apparently include:

Octave - http://www.che.wisc.edu/octave/
Scilab - http://www-rocq.inria.fr/scilab/

You can find the Guide at

1/faq.html

HTH,
Thomas

Next TLUG meeting is Saturday October 11, 1997
