What is Linux(Intoducation) (it is for those students who had related INformation Technology field) GNU/Linux is probably the platform of choice for scientific computing. There exists a wide variety of high level languages, debugging tools and other code development tools for programming, numerical subroutines for solving various types of equations, plotting and visualization packages, word processing software which can display equations and figures and in fact parallel programming software to construct a supercomputer with off the shelf PC parts and some hardware. This document aims to provide a list of free software for carrying out the above tasks and links to tutorials and other documents on how to setup and use these software applications. This document does not aim to provide links to subject specific free software available for GNU/Linux systems. It aims to show how GNU/Linux can be used best to handle scientific computing tasks. It is hoped that people or institutions with interest in a specific subject list, compile a list of the free software available for that subject ... for example see Linux for Astronomy, Linux for Biotechnology and Linux for Chemistry at The Random Factory . Another site with a lot of links (to commercial and free) scientific software is Scientific Applications on Linux. The GNU Software Directory also has links to many of the links provided in this howto plus many more topic specific software. The software links provided are classified into: BY Asad Raza Sargani......
