35.2 Using Packages

By default installed packages are available from the Octave prompt, but it is possible to control this using the pkg load and pkg unload commands. The functions from a package can be removed from the Octave path by typing

pkg unload package_name

where package_name is the name of the package to be removed from the path.

In much the same way a package can be added to the Octave path by typing

pkg load package_name
