37.2 Using Packages
===================

By default installed packages are not 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 added to the Octave path
by typing

     pkg load package_name

where ‘package_name’ is the name of the package to be added to the path.

   In much the same way a package can be removed from the Octave path by
typing

     pkg unload package_name
