Should I work with Python or SciLab?
Use QNial, host call [python, sciLab], for matLab programs try SciLab-Octave?

https://wiki.scilab.org/Different%20execution%20modes%20of%20Scilab
Scilab is available in three modes : 
GUI - It is the standard Scilab GUI.
	Launch: scilab
NW / Advanced Command Line Interpreter
	Scilab is launched as a command line interpreter, with all features available, including functionalities that open a GUI.
	Launch: scilab -nw
	On Linux and MacOS, an alias (symbolic link) is similar to this command:
	scilab-adv-cli
NWNI / Command Line Interpreter
	Scilab is launched as a command line interpreter, with only the core of Scilab available; in particular, all the functionalities that use a GUI are unavailable, namely: 
	Launch: scilab -nwni
	On Linux and MacOS, an alias (symbolic link) is similar to this command:
	scilab-cli

Scripting capabilities : 
Pipe - It is possible to call Scilab as a processing engine through the classical pipes:
	echo "disp(%pi)"|scilab-adv-cli
	echo "disp(%pi)"|scilab-cli
	echo "disp(%pi)"|scilab -nw
	echo "disp(%pi)"|scilab -nwni
Arguments - Some arguments are available in the Scilab binary:
	-e: Provide a Scilab expression (note that Scilab won't exit itself) 
	scilab-cli  -e "disp(%pi); exit;" -nb
	-f: Provide a Scilab script file 
	scilab-adv-cli  -f myCustomScript.sci -nb
	1
Arguments + pipe
	Even when Scilab is used through a pipe, it is possible to use the arguments. Arguments are processed first.
	echo "disp(%pi*2)"|./bin/scilab-cli  -e "disp(%pi)"

https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-easily-convert-a-python-script-to-an-executable-file-exe-4966e253c7e9
The first (auto-py-to-exe) has a friendly interface that will help beginners to easily create executables, while the second (PyInstaller) offers a straightforward way to create executables through the terminal.

Making an Executable file with PyInstaller

This option fits better for those who prefer to quickly create an executable file running a command on the terminal.

If you’re used to working with the terminal, then the PyInstaller library will be the best option. To install PyInstaller follow these steps.

    Step 1: Open up a terminal and run pip install pyinstaller
    Step 2: Using the terminal, go to the directory where your script is located (use the cd command)
    Step 3: Once you‘re in the right directory, write a command with the following syntaxpyinstaller --onefile name_of_script.py in the terminal to make the script executable.

The command used in step 3 is similar to the code shown in the step 5 picture for the auto-py-to-exe option. You can play a little bit with the GUI offered by auto-py-to-exe to get used to the many options you can add to this command.

After running the command, you should see a message that says “completed successfully.” In the directory where your script is located, a folder named “dist” should have been created. Inside the folder, you’ll find the standalone executable!
