Shall I use Matlab?
Shall I use Matlab?
(OP)
I am a student doing graphic coursework, completely new to this software, and facing the choice between matlab and C(both under Unix). I haven't used any matlab before, is it any good at graphic designing? my course work start with simplily generating a PPM file( which I am sure I can do it under C) but later on it gets more complex with all sort of 3D requirement which I still have absolutely no idea yet.
Will it be good for me to choose matlab, start learning it and do my course work with it? by the way we are given 100 hours to complete our coursework.
by the way, If I choose a version of matlab under windows, with my work be compatible with the Matlab under Unix?
Any suggestion will be appreciated, thanks

RE: Shall I use Matlab?
Does your graphic coursework involve a lot of mathematical calculations to produce 3-D?
If yes, use Matlab. If no, stay with C. By the way, just for a point of reference, 100 hours is not going to get you proficient in using Matlab, especially for graphics.

I also know 100 hours is not enough, but hey, that is what we got!
Is there any good matlab site/forum (except this one) I can get help from?

But, you have to be a registered user. So, you had better have a legal copy of Matlab.
