[09:48] gnu octave [09:48] an app to work with mathematics [09:48] and calculations [09:48] seems more like a programming language to me [09:48] yep [09:49] u got it [09:49] does it have an interactive prompt like python has? [09:49] i m totally new to such language [09:49] gnu octave is my first try [09:50] why are you interested in it instead of a more general-purpose language, like python? [09:50] ok let mne know how to get pythbon first then [09:50] \python [09:50] you already have it [09:51] type python3 to terminal and get started [09:51] ok [09:51] now tell me how it works [09:51] please [09:52] the interactive interpreter is fun, you just type a command and it runs it [09:52] print("hello world") [09:52] ok [09:52] do it works with functions and graphs [09:53] yes, you want a module for that [09:53] matplotlib is a popular one [09:53] how to get that [09:53] is it inbuilt? [09:53] or default in ubuntu [09:53] you want to learn the language first, then using modules :) [09:53] ok [09:54] i guess u will sure to drag me to most basics at once [09:54] like it..........

[19:47] thnks [19:48] * nomic files this chat [19:54] djgifsedgjizrdh [21:00] I upgraded 14.04-->16.04. Now, when I log in I get the wallpaper and a mouse curser & nothing else. I have to drop into a console session and kill im-launch. [21:01] I installed xfce and that works fine, but I really want Mate back! [21:10] Tintomatic: Have you considered looking into your ~/.config directory and renaming some of the "Mate" related folders to see if that will resolve the issue? Sometimes old configs and prefs will screw up the new "Mate", hmm... === apessoa is now known as Guest58517 === emma|offline is now known as Emma_Drey [21:37] Yankee: I created a new user, so that there would be no old configs in the way. [21:50] Tintomatic: And with the "new user" - you're still not getting "Mate" at all? [22:14] ran mate on a dell latitude .. going back to xubuntu -- many issues [22:14] bad ones [22:15] not set up out of the box to run on such a standard machine (or will not) [22:15] xubuntu is [22:15] doesn't even recognise the screen [22:15] screen flickers [22:15] mouse trackpad problems, even iwth the xubuntu settings (synclient) [22:15] hali [22:15] nomic: Safe to assume you've installed all the proper graphics drivers and the likes? [22:15] enter automatically presses itself in mid-sentence [22:15] would I have to seek them out [22:16] thats a severe issue, indeed. [22:16] are you an op bekks [22:16] no, why? [22:16] so I can safely ignore your comment [22:17] re: enter [22:17] I dont need to be an p to be annoyed by such a behaviour. [22:17] And I dont need to be an op to set you on my ignore list. [22:17] it annoys you [22:17] done. [22:17] Gosh it's a lovely Sunday morning - must be time for more coffee...egads... [22:18] sunday = where [22:18] Australia. Where the future starts before dispersing to the rest of the world. :) [22:19] BTW, the world hasn't ended. At least today. [22:19] * nomic wonders if dd (write to usb key) .. can hang [22:20] nomic: It can appear to hang...for a long time, sometimes... [22:20] 1 thing that has been hanging -- brasero, to write the ubuntu mate 64 image (iso) [22:21] definitely hangs up @ end .. (verifying checksum) [22:21] k. didn't hang 1241513984 bytes (1.2 GB) copied, 970.966 s, 1.3 MB/s [22:22] nomic: You're using Brasero to write to a USB, or....? [22:22] dvd [22:22] what is advised on the ubuntu site "installation" [22:22] 'use brasero' [22:22] AH...right oh...right oh...and the ISO is verified/checked again the MD5 sum, yes? [22:22] yes, I did check it [22:23] brasero from an xubuntu 14.04 [22:23] which is a clean copy -- there is a problem, IMO [22:23] The ISO? Or Brasero? [22:24] iso/brasero/xubuntu ...I would think the iso/brasero [22:25] Hello! [22:25] nomic: I haven't done an install with a DVD/CD in a long long time - I generally trust USB (after they've been formatted, repartitioned, checked) [22:40] strange .. got earlier usb key .. & later 1 (sandisk, tdk) .. earlier 1 (sandisk) .. when writing the little light flickers -- I like that better .. the sandisk light flashes [22:41] "Oooooo....shiny! Oooooo.....lights!" heheheheh - all good all good...hehehehe... [22:43] technology [22:43] :) [22:44] . [22:45] & that went faster- which means that something was wrong with write to lst usb key .. musta been cos it was trying to write to filesystem [22:45] this was formatted [22:45] mebbe the other one flashes too [22:49] Flashy lights are cool...hehehe...EITHER WHICH, it appears to have moved along faster - that's a good thing. [22:50] don't think it does .. cos installed mate with it earlier -- didn't see flashing [22:51] so much faster, installing from usb, vs. dvd [22:52] usb ->ssd = zippy [22:53] * YankDownUnder likes SSD's heaps [23:54] ok so [23:55] im about to use a vm to create a multiboot system [23:55] any advice?
