File Exchange Pick of the Week

World’s greatest predictive tool

People do some fancy stuff with MATLAB to predict future events – from what the stock market will do next to determining if a design change will allow an airplane to meet performance specs. These capabilities are amazing, but sometimes you just need a simple answer, and you need it quick.

There’s one source I’ve always turned to when I really need help making a tough decision – my trusty Magic 8 Ball ® ! Thanks to Scott Copeland, I can now access this oracle of wisdom without taking my hands off of the keyboard. Magic 8 Ball gives you answers, and it gives them to you fast. Never mind that they might not be right …
