Link to some downloadable Freemat code … rename to ThreePartScript.m for use. Link to Freemat, a MATLAB clone, download. Link to MATLAB information … from Wikipedia from which quote above comes. Let’s see some simple Freemat, a MATLAB clone in action … I’ve been curious about MATLAB, especially as Yahoo Answers questions ask so much about it, but have not used it extensively, as you’ll see from the ill-informed steps of the tutorial above, but it is designed to give you an introduction into your further research. MATLAB is widely used in academic and research institutions as well as industrial enterprises. MATLAB users come from various backgrounds of engineering, science, and economics. In 2004, MATLAB had around one million users across industry and academia.
An additional package, Simulink, adds graphical multi-domain simulation and Model-Based Design for dynamic and embedded systems. 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.Īlthough MATLAB is intended primarily for numerical computing, an optional toolbox uses the MuPAD symbolic engine, allowing access to symbolic computing capabilities. MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a numerical computing environment and fourth-generation programming language. Here is a tutorial that introduces you to some aspects of Freemat, a clone of MATLAB.
