MATLAB Optimize an algorithm that the profiler can not help

 I very much advocate “No premature optimization” because until the code is running and pushed through the profiler, it is difficult to know where the bottlenecks of speed are.

In this video, the profiler only finds hotspots in MATLAB code that can not be further optimized. We find an algorithmic change that allows us to get the speed increase.

Doug first used MATLAB in 1994, could not figure it out until he got some help in 1995. He is now dedicated to making sure that no one else wastes a year of their life not knowing MATLAB like he did.

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).
