MATLAB

A must use in the biological world

Kommentare: I use Matlab personally to get quantitative data from micrscopy images. This allows me to report details in strucure and migration for cellular biology images. Although it's tricky when you first start using Matlab and it's counterparts, once you understand or look through the forums it's smooth sailing. Keep in mind if you plan on doing intensive analysis/calculations that's all possible with Matlab which has been extremly benefical for me but you will need a good computer. I find that some users play the software for lag/delays but Matlab is calculating such complex and small detailed analysis that the computer creates the delay in communication back to them. Overall without this program I would not have been able to 1)finish my Masters thesis and 2)provide support to my customers with my current job.

Vorteile:

Matlab's additional plugins and programming abilities has helped with my research analysis incredibly. It's allowed me to measure details that have not been reported in the past and has allowed me to learn more about coding language. I used a plugin known as celltracker. When doing so I was able to launch and see the additional coding. This helped me customize other scripts I later created for my work because I was able to see the backbone scripts through matlab. It's a lot more user friendly than other softwares like Fiji or R but because the language is similar it made it for an easier transition for me personally.

Nachteile:

If you're using matlab for graphing data I find that the coding and implementation of stylistics components a bit more complicated than say using Prism or R. Sometimes text background looks dated and trying to change it takes a lot longer than it should. A really nice feature is the 3D graphs that are produced through Matlab but sadly they are pretty hard to transfer to reports and publications unless you capture the graph at a specific angle or use a screen recording of turning the 3D graph for presentation purposes.

Best Simulation Software Available with Support to all New developments

Kommentare: Overall it's an amazing software to work with. We can also simulate software architectures on it which makes it easier to use.

Vorteile:

The scalability of the software. The software is based on mathematical matrix and with that almost everything is possible. If you want to model a RC equivalent of a battery or you want to use a battery blockset both are possible. We can estimate the modelling and design efficiently and effectively.

Nachteile:

Ease of navigation to certain blocksets is a problem. And i sometimes find it hard and get confused with normal simulink and simscape models... Both are difficult to connect with eachother.

MATLAB is an ok option for data

Vorteile:

MATLAB does it's job well. It is good for large quantities of data.

Nachteile:

MATLAB is not very user friendly and the language can be tough to learn, I prefer Python.

There's a lot of possibility in MATLAB

Vorteile:

MATLAB was fairly easy to learn and get accustomed to. I used it mainly for statistical analysis but I've seen it used for structural analysis of frames using matrices. This is to say that it's a very versatile software and there's a lot that can be done.

Nachteile:

While there are a very wide range of possibilities available with MATLAB, there can be a lot of legwork to do on the user end to get past the learning curve. This can be true for a lot of coding languages so this isn't really a significant concern for me.

To establish an analogy, this is similar to using a calculator

Kommentare: Overall, It makes life so easy for you that it takes you away from the mathematical infrastructure and algorithm-based approaches that the engineer is obligatory for. To establish an analogy, this is similar to using a calculator.

Vorteile:

You won't feel the slowness of most of the processes/processes (the situation of the codes running for days is different), on top of that, when you think that hundreds of thousands of lines of code need to be written in order to do the 5-line job in matlab, for example in c, the value of the sublime program is understandable.. almost everything is made possible with its scientific toolbox ( There's also a symbolic toolbox).. The for event is something every matlabist says, but if you're using matlab properly, you don't need to make a for loop in unnecessary places. A good knowledge of linear algebra is very useful in this way.. If you think you've swallowed the matlab a bit, it's not built-in. By looking at the functions (say type) you can see how the fathers of this job avoid the for's, how they use matrices horribly (but they are code written with speed in mind: variable names, indices usage etc. can make your brain watery).. as a bit of tactics, lookfor, helpdesk, keyboard Let me remind you that there are commands like , profile .

Nachteile:

It constantly opens processes on your computer, slows down the computer, and gives a virus warning from time to time. Other than that there is no problem.
