Hi Morgan. The book is also fully Octave-compatible. Every line of code was tested in Octave 4, and any discrepancies between Matlab and Octave are noted in the code. I also tried to avoid specialized toolboxes when possible, which makes the book more compatible with non-toolbox-loaded Matlab versions.
