Unlike Java and C/C++, Matlab has its own way of performing your codes because it uses its own pre-compiled codes, therefore users need not compile the source beforehand. To write efficient MATLAB codes, one has to understand the underlying fundamentals that builds up MATLAB itself. For instance, MATLAB is catered more for matrix computations and analysis, rather than coding an executable program, although the latter is still possible. Nonetheless, if you want to write a .exe program, you might be better off playing with C/C++ instead.
So, where does MATLAB supremacy comes in? As mentioned in the previous paragraph, it is good when it comes to matrix operations. For instance, “dot-product” operations, the “\” operations, and those that uses linear algebra operations. In particular, I will focus more on using REPMAT to exploit MATLAB’s engine in this post.

This post is just an announcement. I have recently upgraded this site to support multi-lingual translation. Thanks to Angsuman Chakraborty’s development of the WordPress Plugin, Automatic Machine Translation. With it, now the site can translate up to eight different languages, including English, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Korean.
As you can see on the sidebar to the right, there are 9 flags, each representing different countries, and their respective languages. Simply click on your desired flag and the page will automatically translate the current page into the language of your choice almost instantly.
Unfortunately, there is one small issue with the translator, as subsequent navigation from the current page does not automatically produce the translated versions. Meanwhile, the next release of the plugin is almost to be released. I will just have to wait before upgrading to the next version. So, keep an eye on this site!
