What is Matlab?
Matlab is a software, developed by the American company MathWorks, that allows you to code, analyze data, create algorithms and model. Here some examples of its applications:
Physical-world data - MATLAB has native support for sensor, image, video, telemetry, binary, and other real-time formats.
Machine learning, neural networks and statistics - MATLAB offers a full set of statistics and machine learning functionality, plus advanced methods such as nonlinear optimization, system identification, and thousands of prebuilt algorithms for image and video processing, financial modeling, control system design.
High speed processing of large data sets - MATLAB’s numeric routines scale directly to parallel processing on clusters and cloud.
Online and real-time deployment - MATLAB integrates into enterprise systems, clusters, and clouds, and can be targeted to real-time embedded hardware.
These are the most common features of this incredible programming environment and in the next post I'll introduce you the basics to start being familiar with it.
