 ** About Octave
-GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language that provides
-capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear
-problems,extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and
-manipulation.
 
+GNU Octave is a high-level matrix based, interpreted language,
+primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a
+convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear
+problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments
+using a language that is, to a large extent, code compatible with
+MATLAB.
