What Is MATLAB?

MATLAB® is a programming and numeric computing environment used by millions of engineers and scientists to analyze data, develop algorithms, and create models.

MATLAB provides professionally developed toolboxes for signal and image processing, control systems, wireless communications, computational finance, robotics, deep learning and AI, and more.

MATLAB combines a desktop environment tuned for iterative analysis and design processes with a high-level programming language that expresses matrix and array mathematics directly. It includes the Live Editor for creating scripts that combine code, output, and formatted text in an executable notebook. Prebuilt apps allow you to interactively perform iterative tasks. You can then automatically generate the corresponding MATLAB code to reproduce your work and add it to your script with a push of a button.

You can extend MATLAB with thousands of packages and toolboxes shared on GitHub, MATLAB File Exchange, and elsewhere. And MATLAB code and algorithms can be deployed to run on cloud and enterprise systems, used directly in Simulink®, or automatically converted to C/C++, HDL, and CUDA code to run on embedded devices.
