Man MATLAB is awesome. You write scripts in a forth the time it would take you in any other language.

FUCK YEAH it is.

All you need to know is the math and then suddenly you are making ACTUAL STUFF

ACTUAL STUFF
U MENA ``ABSTRACT BULLSHITE''?

I've never felt comfortable with learning a language when I know I will never afford the implementation.

Well there does exist an open source Matlab clone or two. Though usually I just steal it unless I am somewhere where I get it for free.

If you know your shit, then why would you want to translate all your code to assembly in your head?

For second I thought, you could write scripts in FORTH.
Now I'm sad.

In that case, I'll be checking it out. Thanks for the info.

Although I think I would still prefer Maxima, because it is written in LISP, and therefore, not crap.

If you are serious about learning a language like this, I would recommend Matlab though. It's just plain popular (in academia and engineering from what I know) and there are lots of code that you can steal (ie. learn from) on the internet.

Thanks, yeah, I've had to use Matlab in the past due to useful things being written in it. It seems pretty powerful and popular, and it looks like complicated numerical algorithms can be expressed pretty easily.

Yeah, I barely knew programming when I was an undergrad. I was able to pick Matlab up and program and plot solutions for some type of wave function and Laplace's eqn. (I think) fairly easily.
