The MathWorks outage is the perfect time to look at GNU Octave! No license servers to deal with for FLOSS! octave.org/

Even if it's not helpful right now during the outage, consider it for future work to avoid stoppage the next time the MathWorks hostage server goes down.

Some benefits of #LabPlot:

👉 an interactive environment with a graphical user interface,
👉 ease of use for non-programmers,
👉 built-in tools for data analysis, statistics, regression, and curve fitting,
👉 platform integration that may offer a better experience than running Python scripts,
👉 possibility to run #Python, #Maxima, #R, #Octave and other languages inside LabPlot's computational notebooks.

Apportioned voting is a new voting system that proportionally apportions each vote among each candidate to which the voter has assigned a non-negative preference value. It is similar to proportional ranked-choice voting, but proportional vote totals are computed in a single step.

The paper includes #Octave (#FOSS) scripts for calculating the results of apportioned voting.

journals.plos.orgApportioned votingThe paper introduces a new electoral system, based on proportional representation, called apportioned voting because each vote is apportioned among the candidates. Apportioned voting can be thought of as an enhanced and generalized hybrid of cumulative voting and single transferable vote (also known as proportional ranked-choice voting). Apportioned voting can efficiently handle government and corporate elections with large numbers of voters, positions to fill, and candidates. The paper provides a detailed description of apportioned voting, illustrative examples of apportioned voting’s election performance, and the Octave scripts used to implement apportioned voting and compute the example results.

The interactive calculation sheet for #engineering, based on #emacs, #orgmode, #texlatex and #sympy is available in English [1], although the blog article is in German [2]. The template is also in English [3].

#Orgmode is so impressive, you could use #maxima, #octave, #gnuplot, #graphviz and almost 40 other languages with all their libraries right out of the box [4].

Have fun!

Any #octave or #matlab users here? I'm generating a plot and it's coming out with whitespace before the Y axis and after the end of the plot, which is rather annoying. Is there a parameter to either stretch the plot to fill the frame or to shrink the frame to the dimensions of the plot?
