So i’ve installed the Symbolic package into Octave the way octave said to and i loaded it as well. However, when i try to run the ‘syms’ command in gives me this strange error. I have python installed and up to date as well as sympy.
octave:2> syms x y
warning: the 'syms' function belongs to the symbolic package from Octave Forge
which you have installed but not loaded. To load the package, run 'pkg
load symbolic' from the Octave prompt.
Please read <https://www.octave.org/missing.html> to learn how you can
contribute missing functionality.
error: 'syms' undefined near line 1 column 1
octave:2> pkg load symbolic
octave:3> syms x y
