What package is right for you?

Mathematica vs. MATLAB

Page 2: Mathematica vs. MATLAB€¦ · A comparison Mathematica Matlab Student price: $139 (includes full version) $99 (student version, Signal & Systems toolbox costs extra) Fully integrated

A comparisonMathematica Matlab

Student price: $139 (includes full version)$99 (student version, Signal & Systems

toolbox costs extra)

Fully integrated GUI with text, equations, graphics, sound and animations

Terminal-style interface

Numeric and powerful symbolic computations engine.

Matrix/vector oriented; poorly integrated symbolic computations add-on

Fully integrated on-line help facilities with many executable examples

On-line help facilities/demos; not as nicely integrated as Mathematica

Poor support at University of FloridaInstalled in ECE computing lab; may be

used in future classes at UF

For C/C++/Java programmers, syntax may be harder to learn

C-like syntax (although subtle differences do exist)
