Scilab Scilab is a matrix-based scientific software package resembling MATLAB and Xmath. Scilab contains hundreds of built-in mathematical functions, sophisticated data structures (including polynomials, rationals, linear systems, lists, etc...), a high-level interpretor and a macro language, and excellent graphics. Thanks to full dynamic link capability, C and Fortran programs can be added as new functions
