MATLAB is a high-level language and interactive environment for numerical computation, visualization, and programming.

Its key features are:

• High-level language for numerical computation, visualization, and application development
• Interactive environment for iterative exploration, design, and problem solving
• Mathematical functions for linear algebra, statistics, Fourier analysis, filtering, optimization, numerical integration, and solving ordinary differential equations
• Built-in graphics for visualizing data and tools for creating custom plots
• Development tools for improving code quality and maintainability and maximizing performance
• Tools for building applications with custom graphical interfaces
• Functions for integrating MATLAB based algorithms with external applications and languages such as C, Java, .NET, and Microsoft Excel
