Gold Any MatLab programmers around here?

So when it comes to Engineering virtually everyone has to learn MatLab to be able to create simulations of certain things, such as a certain material under a stressing load , etc... I'm just starting to get into it and I was wondering if anyone around SL has any experience with it? Seeing as it's not overly useful for traditional programming problems and mostly just for simulating real world things I'd be surprised if many people around here know it, but I'm sure there is someone on this board.

Well, you need to know a high-level programming language like C, C++ or Java. So basically you need to have an expert level in all 3 Languages that I mention.

Are you trying to say you have to know C, C++ and Java to be able to learn MatLab? Because if so that's entirely untrue. The only real requirement to MatLab programming as far as I can tell is a decent enough understanding of Calculus and how functions work.

yes, I agree with your point about having a high level of math.
yes, it is very true. Please read this link below.
