Recently someone asked me to explain the speed behavior doing a calculation using a loop and array indexing vs. getting the subarray first.... read more >>

Today I would like to introduce guest blogger Jeremy Greenwald who works in the Development group here at MathWorks. Jeremy works on the Code Analyzer and will be discussing when preallocating MATLAB arrays is useful and when it should be avoided.... read more >>

I thought I would share my top goto list of things I try to do when I write MATLAB code. And checking with other MathWorks folks whose code I admire, I found they basically used the same mental list that I use.... read more >>

Once again we're going to hear from guest blogger Peter Perkins, who is a statistical software developer here at The MathWorks.... read more >>

I've recently been offered the opportunity to review a new book, The Elements of MATLAB Style by contributor to the FEX, Richard K. Johnson. It's a great opportunity for me to see what's important in the eyes of one particular prolific MATLAB user. And it's a ... read more >>
