Scientific computing survey

Are you a scientist user of MATLAB? My friend Greg Wilson of the University of Toronto just sent me notice of a survey you might be interested in:

Computers are as important to modern scientists as test tubes, but we know surprisingly little about how scientists develop and use software in their research. To find out, the University of Toronto, Simula Research Laboratory, and the National Research Council of Canada have launched an online survey in conjunction with "American Scientist" magazine. If you have 20 minutes to take part, please go to:

Thanks in advance for your help!

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
