    CAPABILITIES OF ALTAIR COMPOSE

    Powerful and Flexible Programming

    Matrix Based Data Structure
    Compose open matrix language (oml) provides a matrix based, fully interpreted data structure including literals, data types, strings, variables and assignments, indexing, operators, expressions & statements, flow of control & looping, workspace & scoping rules, functions, error & warning I/O.

    Compatible with Octave
    Compose’s OML is compatible with Industry standards such as Octave. The language is extremely easy to learn and can also be used for batch mode execution.

    Integrated Development Environment

    Script Editor
    Modern script editor with syntax highlighting, smart indentation, collapsible sections including code folding, bookmarking, searching and toggling to display on/off line numbers. Script editor also allows you to split the screen into multiple views for more interactive authoring and execution.

    Command Window
    A fully featured command window with command completion, code editing and display print command outputs during script execution from the editor allowing for visual and interactive code inspections during runtime.

    Variable Browser
    Variable browser displays all the user-generated and global workspace variables including their name, value, type and scope. Options to easily monitor variable values during debugging.

    Multi-language Environment

    Powerful Debugger
    Powerful debugger with options to easily monitor variable values via watch window, track paths traced while executing scripts via call stack window and display all breakpoints in the debugging session via the breakpoints window.

    Extensive Math Libraries

    Differential Equations

    Signal Processing

    Statistical Analysis

    And many more math libraries!

     

    WHAT’S NEW IN COMPOSE 2017

    Support for Linux OS

    Compose 2017 is now available on Linux platforms such as Red Hat/CentOS 6.6 & 7.2 as well as Suse 12 SP1

    Edit, Execute & Debug Python Scripts In Compose!

    Compose 2017 Integrated Development Environment (IDE) supports Python as a new scripting language. This allows you to easily edit, execute and debug Python scripts directly within the Compose user environment

    Support for GUI Commands

    Compose 2017 offers new GUI commands to create interactive UI directly from Open Matrix Language (OML) scripts. Standard GUI components (button, entries, list box, etc.) can be arranged and connected to user functions for interactive data processing
