Denition MATLAB R is a high-performance language for technical computing. It integrates computation, visualization and programming in an easy-to-use environment where problems and solutions are expressed in familiar mathematical notation. Typical uses include Math and computation, Algorithm development, Data acquisition, Modeling, simulation, prototyping, Data analysis, exploration, visualization, Scientic and engineering graphics, Application development including graphical user interface building -The MathWorks, Inc.

MATLAB
MATRIX LABORATORY Everything in MATLAB is a matrix The basic data element in MATLAB is an array that does not require dimensioning. An interactive software package/language designed for scientic and engineering computations - Making it Simple!!!!! An interpreted language - Commands executed line by line Precise numerical calculations and graphics illustrations are possible

MATLAB............ ?
MATLAB commands are expressed in a notation close to that used in Mathematics and Engineering
Eg: sin,log,abs ......

Problem solving in MATLAB is generally much faster than traditional programming

Eg: inv

Single MATLAB command to nd the inverse of a matrix Because of natural notation, MATLAB code is clear and self documented MATLAB Software is written in Optimized C and assembly language- to obtain high performance

MATLAB............ ?
MATLAB commands are MATLAB functions generally stored as an M le (File stored with .m as extension)
Eg: sin.m , plot.m etc...

The built in M les are open. Modications are possible. One can create user dened M les /functions for solving certain problems
sin.m is a built-in function to calculate sin of an angle But no built in function is available to nd sine square of an angle User can create a function named sin2 (le sin2.m) to do the same

MATLAB............ ?
There is nothing one can do in Fortran or C that can not be done in MATLAB (and in a much easier fashion) MATLAB has a rich set of Toolboxes/application-specic solutions to do specialized work Toolboxes are comprehensive collections of MATLAB functions (M-les) that extend the MATLAB environment to learn and apply specialized technology
Simulink Electrical - Control Systems, Signal processing, Power systems Mathematics - PDE , Fuzzy logic , Optimization, Wavelet etc..
