Perform numerical computation, programming and visualization tasks on a Mac in the dedicated environment with a set of customization options and tools for processing and editing data. Data analysis, application development, and algorithm creation are possible.
MATLAB is a high-level language and interactive environment that enables you to perform computationally intensive tasks faster than with traditional programming languages such as C, C++, and Fortran.
