So, the way I see SciLab is like an excell on steroids. SciLab is a tool that allows you to input data and do mathematical operations with it. At the same time, it allows for the user to graph such inputs, either in 2D or even in 3D.
I believe that as a future engineer, SciLab will be a great tool to make data analysis and to understand in graphs what happens.
Being honest, I did not download SciLab on my PC, since I am still figuring out how to properly connect my SSD into my Laptop. I read the manuls, and saw this video explaining the very basics of SciLab.
I will leave the links to both the manual and the program Download. here is a video made by YouTube user UTTU in which the very basics are explained.
