Description
MATLAB provides a complete IDE that facilitates writing, running and debugging code, file management and project organization, and offers a wide range of functions for performing numerical computations, such as linear algebra, matrix calculus, differential equations, optimization and statistical analysis.
Application in education
Allows visualization of abstract mathematical concepts such as functions, differential equations and geometry, facilitating students' understanding; Can be used to solve complex mathematical problems efficiently, freeing up time for students to focus on understanding the concepts.
Functionalities
- It allows you to create high-quality 2D and 3D charts and data visualizations, including bar charts, histograms, line charts, surface plots and much more.
- Proprietary programming language, called M language, that allows you to write code to automate tasks, implement complex algorithms and create complete applications.
- Tools to create intuitive graphical user interfaces to interact with the developed programs.
Advantages
- Intuitive graphical interface and a relatively easy to learn programming language.
- Extensive library of predefined functions to perform common tasks in mathematics, science and engineering.
- Allows you to write your own code to adapt the software to specific needs.
