Summary
We learned a lot in this chapter about Octave functions and plotting.
Specifically, we covered:
Octave functions in general.
Mathematical functions including how polynomials are represented in Octave.
Helper functions.
Operator functions.
How to calculate the range of more complicated mathematical functions.
Two dimensional plotting.
How to plot several graphs in the same figure window, subplots, and how to navigate between multiple figure windows.
Three-dimensional plotting including contour plots
How to change the figure and axis properties
In the next chapter, we will see how scripts can be used to execute a sequence of commands so that you do not need to retype the same commands over and over.
