Description
MATLAB is a high-level programming language and environment designed for numerical computation, visualization, and programming. It allows users to analyze data, develop algorithms, and create models and applications. The language, tools, and built-in math functions enable users to explore multiple approaches and reach solutions faster than with spreadsheets or traditional programming languages. MATLAB skills range from understanding the basic environment and syntax, performing simple mathematical operations, creating scripts and functions, to more advanced skills like object-oriented programming, creating graphical user interfaces (GUIs), and integrating MATLAB with other languages. Expertise in MATLAB can also include using specialized toolboxes for machine learning, signal processing, and parallel computing.
