Use this software in my studies of Computer Engineering with free software

Pros: This software allows to make scientific and mathematical calculations of physics and engineering, it serves for the simulation of industrial control processes and it is also free
Cons: It can be said that there are few disadvantages we can mention the language in which it was made English and French must only have a previous instruction to handle it is not very instuitive
Overall: It has many benefits but the most outstanding is its potential in terms of what we can develop with it and the fact that it is free
Scilab is a powerful tools for maths calculating. It is very easy to use.

Pros: I do most like to Scilab its environment for editing maths problems. Another excellent feature is that Scilab is an open and free source software, what allow one to customise to a huge amount of problems.
Cons: I do like least is that Scilab is not easy to learn, because it works by commands, and some people do not like to use commands. However, Scilab has a set of icons for modelling systems, which help one to model systems.
Overall: This software allow one to do very complicated maths calculate.
Used this software for making a simluation project
Pros: Scilab is an open source software.
Availibility for various operating systems viz linux, mac and windows.
Cons: being open source it has less official support.
community support cannot be reliable for thorough use
Scilab is the ideal tool for numerical modelling and custom scripting!
Pros: I like that it's open-source since this means you have a ton of tech-geeks working out solutions for troubleshooting online and you can always find the answers to a question you might have or post a question and receive help from a great support base of users!
Cons: Sometimes the graphics are temperamental, depending on your computer's operating system. Linux users seem to run into trouble more often.
Pros: Scilab is a great tool for statistics, communications, satellite orbits, networking, algorithm complexity, and virtually all fields of academics and engineering. Both Scilab itself and its plugins (called modules) are cross-platform, with ready-made packages for Windows, macOS, the most popular Linux distros, and BSD. It is free and open-source, distributed under GPLv2 and previously CeCILL. The main application is well-written, using as little resources as possible, but stays as powerful as any alternative. The community is not large, but it is a serious one, users and programmers constantly working in making Scilab the optimal application of its kind.
Cons: Let's not lie; scientist and engineers use MATLAB a lot. Scilab, unfortunately, is not remotely compatible with MATLAB. As long as Scilab is not the most popular of its kind, compatibility will always be an issue. That being said, skill transfer is not a problem. Apart from that, some new modules might be heavier on your computer than they should, but a serious community makes sure they are improved with a rapid pace.
