Octave online compiler

Write, Run & Share Octave code online using OneCompiler’s Octave online compiler for free. It’s a simple and powerful platform to practice numerical computations and matrix operations using GNU Octave right from your browser.

About Octave

GNU Octave is an open-source high-level programming language primarily intended for numerical computations. It is mostly compatible with MATLAB, and it's commonly used for linear algebra, numerical analysis, signal processing, and other scientific computing tasks.

Sample Code

The following is a simple Octave program that prints a greeting:

printf("Hello, OneCompiler!\n");

Taking inputs (stdin)

OneCompiler’s Octave editor supports stdin through the I/O tab. Here's an example of reading input from the user:

name = input("Enter your name: ", "s");
printf("Hello, %s!\n", name);

Syntax Basics

Variables

a = 10;
b = 3.14;
name = "Octave";

Vectors and Matrices

v = [1, 2, 3];
M = [1, 2; 3, 4];

Arithmetic

Operation	Syntax
Add	+
Subtract	-
Multiply	*
Divide	/
Element-wise	.*, ./

Conditionals

x = 10;
if x > 5
    disp("x is greater than 5");
else
    disp("x is 5 or less");
end

Loops

For loop

for i = 1:5
    disp(i);
end

While loop

i = 1;
while i <= 5
    disp(i);
    i = i + 1;
end

Functions

function y = square(x)
    y = x ^ 2;
end

result = square(4);
printf("Square: %d\n", result);
