...Scilab provides graphics functions to visualize, annotate and export data and offers many ways to create and customize various types of plots and charts. Scilab is a high level programming language for scientific programming. It enables a rapid prototyping of algorithms, without having to deal with the complexity of other more low level programming language such as C and Fortran (memory management, variable definition). This is natively handled by Scilab, which results in a few lines of code for complex mathematical operations, where other languages would require much longer codes. It also comes with advanced data structure such as polynomials, matrices and graphic handles and provides an easily operable development environment.
