The FEMM 4.2 distribution includes toolboxes for interacting with FEMM from Octave/Matlab, Scilab, Mathematica, and Py
Matlab
For Matlab, add the mfiles directory with the interactive pathtool command.
Octave
You can download the most recent distribution of GNU Octave from https://www.gnu.org/software/octave

Scilab
Scilab can be obtained from http://www.scilab.org/ . The SciFEMM interface is automatically included in every install
64-bit FEMM requires 64-bit Scilab for the the two programs to successfully communicate (and 32-bit FEMM requires 32-bi
Scilab).
Mathematica
The MathFEMM interface to Mathematica has been tested on Mathematica 7 through 12. The package works with either the
64 bit versions of Mathematica.
Python
A Python interface to FEMM is available from the pyFEMM page or from its page on PyPI .
