Introducing MATLAB!

Hi everyone!

Just want to share this great software. I have been using this for a year and I find this attractive.

Here is an overview:

MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a numerical computing environment and fourth-generation programming language. Developed by MathWorks, MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages, including C, C++, Java, and Fortran.


Although MATLAB is intended primarily for numerical computing, an optional toolbox uses the MuPAD symbolic engine, allowing access to symbolic computing capabilities. An additional package, Simulink, adds graphical multi-domain simulation and Model-Based Design for dynamic and embedded systems.


In 2004, MATLAB had around one million users across industry and academia.[2] MATLAB users come from various backgrounds of engineering, science, and economics. MATLAB is widely used in academic and research institutions as well as industrial enterprises.

Hope this helps.

  • Why would i want to use it? what problems does it solve that i have?

    • It is great for getting statistics out of a dataset and then graphing the results right in the window you're working in... but other than that, it's not too terribly useful for IM I don't think...
  • MATLAB seems to be primarily used in academic situations. Its a "programming language" for scientists not programmers - simply as a way to extract data. Most programmers chaffe at MATLAB because it does not do things the way most programming languages do.
  • i had used it before during my tertiary study but i can't relate it to IM

    haha
  • Its used 4 AI programs

    thnx
    tc
