Dear Richard,
Thanks very much for that! I'll let our IT people know. They maintain the Jobe server on which Octave is installed.
All the Best and Thanks very much again,
David

Hello Richard,
Hope things are going well with you. Thanks very much again for your help last year - it was very useful! For this year, I'd like to test my students on their use of the Octave Symbolic Package:
https://octave.sourceforge.io/symbolic/
and
https://github.com/cbm755/octsympy/wiki/Notes-on-Windows-installation
I was just wondering if you knew whether it was possible to install this package for use with CodeRunner?
All the Best and Thanks very much for your help,
David
I don't teach Octave any more, but I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to install the package on your Jobe server and then just use it in questions.
I typed the Linux (Ubuntu) install command
sudo apt-get install octave-symbolic
on my development system and it appeared to install without issues.
Hi Richard,
Thanks very much for your very quick reply - that is fantastic! Our IT people have installed it on the Jobe server used by our demo site, so I will test it out over the next few days.
All the Best and thanks very much again,
David
Hi Csaba, it sounds like you're making progress. I've never used the symbolic package in Octave, so I've no ideas about speed. David maybe able to help you there. Perhaps you could post an example of a question you're asking and the time it's taking for David or other users to get a measure of what you mean by "incredibly slow"?
