Probability is a subject which brings everyone sleepless nights. Octave, the MATLAB clone or for some MATLAB wanna-be . GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. The best way to learn octave is to take a difficult task (or goal) and then start using it. Octave Basics Octave can be installed using the following command in Ubuntu. $ sudo apt-get install octave Once installed octave can be invoked via the command. $ octave Its best to understand the modus operandi of Octave. Like lists are the primary data structures in LISP Language. In octave vectors are at the core.  Vectors are used to store information, manipulate information via vector algebra and display data still using 2D/3D graphics. Applications of octave are huge but we will use probability as a starting point and see how we can learn better probability using the computational and graphical features of octave.
