This application is a database which gives immediate access to information regarding the sizes/dimensions of most of the fittings (butt weld) in use in industry (1/2"÷40" ASME and UNI); thus saving the user from having to consult any number of catalogues or tables; the aim of this application is to make available quickly these dimensions, applying the standard rules, by few choices of the user.

Is there a front end for Octave?

What about an Octave Simulink?

 

[SomptingGuy]

The front end for Octave is the good old command line. Like Matlab.

The nearest I've seen for a Simulink-ish environment is Scilab/Scicos. It may not look as silky as Simulink, but as well as the causal block modelling ability, it also supports Modelica.

There are a few IDEs for Octave, but the one I tried turns a rock solid stable ugly program into a flaky pretty one.

Have a look at the GUI list here

I saw that list on wikipedia but couldn't figure out which one to try.

Which one didn't work? I'll try to the other.

Here's a simple free web site for units conversion formulas:

Single purpose software. Plots x vs y for every channel in your data, can also stratify by attribute.

Warning, it does no stats, it is purely a visual tool. If you have lots of channels of data and don't know which ones are related, this is your program.
