This poll is for people using programming languages or programs like Matlab for scientific / research purpsoses like:
- Signal / Image processing
- Pattern recognition
- Artificial inteligence
- Telecommunications
- Numerical analysis
- Simulation
etc
So which of the above are u using???
:wave:
I, well a member of my team, used Matlab to test his theories; then C++ to put them into our product. This was an image processing algorithm.
Viggy
I forgot to say that I use (for pattern recognition and audio/video processing) Matlab, C and sometimes C++.
Java is good for research (especially when there are incompetent students involved). It has just right balance between easy discovering of bugs and soft demands to style. Irregardless of presence of required libraries though... I'm currently rebuilding such project, and what interesting is that it's complex system written in major part in spaghetti style, but it works!
Isn't Perl an option ?
Well, maybe you're right. But that's why I've put the "other" option.Quote:

There is a lot of scientific software in Fortran. New project wouldn't be started in Fortran, but extention of old ones sometimes is in Fortran.Quote:

MATLAB has my vote for writing code quickly...
but for writing quick code... C++.
I can't STAND fortran, and never really got into Java.
I know people are gonna shoot me down for this, but Java always seemed a bit unnecessary. For working out algos and hectic maths = MATLAB, GUIs = VB, speed = c++. Although, I guess the bonus of running on any platform is Java real strong point.
Indeed Java is sometimes really slow for algorithm implementation, but apart from the fact that it is platform indepedent, you can find tones of free code and examples (more than in Matlab and C++) consering pattern recognition, image processing etc.Quote:

Definitely Octave!
Reminds me of an school assignment I once got. We could choose between different languages and I chose Java. But, since I had never used Octave before I solved the assignment using Octave as well. The latter solution was ofcource spread around to everyone in my class that wanted to 'have a look'. They didn't change variable names, not even the comments in the code... 8 of my class mates was caught cheating. :pQuote:

something more of useful aspects I would like to understand, not about exporting a user-friendly interface that many people might love to watch.
