Description
Matlab integrates mathematical computing, visualization, and a powerful language to provide a flexible environment for technical computing. The open architecture makes it easy to use MATLAB and its companion products to explore data, create algorithms, and create custom tools that provide early insights and competitive advantages.
Version
After starting matlab (either commandline or X-Windows GUI), type the command ver.
How to Use
Toolboxes
The available toolboxes are listed in the following table:
Toolbox # licenses Matlab 23 Bioinformatics Toolbox 1 Curve Fitting Toolbox 3 Image Processing Toolbox 4 Neural Network Toolbox 2 Optimization Toolbox 4 Partial Differential Equation (PDE) Toolbox 2 SB2SL (Converts System Build to Simulink) unlimited Signal Processing Toolbox 6 SimBiology Toolbox 1 Simulink 1 Spline Toolbox 1 Statistics Toolbox 7 Symbolic Math Toolbox 2 System Identification Toolbox 2 Wavelet Toolbox 2 CGH-Plotter unlimited EEGLAB unlimited P-SCAN unlimited SPM2 unlimited Run the Matlab GUI Interactively
To run the MATLAB graphics interface, an X Windows connection is required. Open an X-Windows connection to helix.nih.gov, and check that it is working by typing 'xclock' at the prompt.
[user@helix ~]$ matlab &You should see the Matlab windows as below:
HINT: If you receive an error message that contains "Failure to Launch Desktop Class", cd to $HOME/.matlab and remove the directory R2007a and try again.
You must use X software to connect, otherwise you will not be able to run the Matlab GUI.
Run Matlab interactively without the GUI
It is also possible to run Matlab interactively on the command-line, without the GUI. This would be useful if you do not wish to use X-Windows.
