Does your current tool set have these advantages?
-
Free-form linguistic input produces immediate results without the need for syntax
Unique to Wolfram technologies -
Built-in functionality for solving local and global optimization problems, both numeric and symbolic, including constrained nonlinear optimization
Matlab requires extra-cost toolboxes -
Automatic, interactive interface construction to visualize your simulations, examine model sensitivity to parameter changes and more
Unique to Wolfram technologies -
Automated precision control and arbitrary-precision numerics produce highly accurate results
Matlab and other systems that rely on finite-precision numerics can cause serious errors due to lack of precision -
Symbolic as well as numeric calculations to manipulate numbers, equations or pieces of code, improving accuracy or creating reusable models
Matlab's built-in routines only handle numeric calculations -
Highly optimized superfunctions analyze your equations and automatically select the right algorithms to get accurate results quickly—sometimes switching mid-calculation for further optimization
Other computation systems make you analyze your equations manually to determine which function to apply—for example, to solve a differential equation in Matlab, you must correctly choose among ode45, ode23, ode113, ode15s, bvp4c, pdepe and so on, or risk wrong answers -
Excellent speeds for many different types of computations, including dense and sparse linear algebra operations
Matlab is significantly slower for many of these operations
