Re: What development language?

Responding to some posts here by others, regarding SCILAB, it is catching in the US fairly fast! For those who are interested, the State U of Utah is one of the institutions that actually have courses on SCILAB. Take a look here... http://www.neng.usu.edu/cee/faculty/gurro/Software_Calculators/Scila...

Download a copy and give it a try, you'll be surprised. And, this also is very appropriate, i.e., having this conversation in th...
