Today I'd like to introduce a guest blogger, Stephen Doe, who works for the MATLAB Documentation team here at MathWorks. In today's post, Stephen discusses how to take advantage of recent performance improvements when indexing into tables. The same approach applies to many different data types. While the release notes describe the performance improvements, in today's post Stephen also offers further advice based on a simple code example.... read more >>

We've worried over the years as we build more features into MATLAB, particularly when we new file types and data types, about making sure users are accessing the artifacts they intend to use.... read more >>

I have, over time, changed when, where, and how I "clean up" my MATLAB session. You may want to update your strategy as well.... read more >>

Today I am going to talk a little about code development and appropriate hygiene that goes with it. Why? Well, have you ever ended up with a really sick feeling after spending hours on something, only to realize that it's been deleted? It's happened to me, but never again!... read more >>

I have to admit, I enjoy puns and plays on words of almost any kind. As I was driving to work this morning, I was thinking about the MATLAB function eval. And something just clicked for me. I am sure the person sitting in the car beside me at the light thought I was crazy.... read more >>

I have written blogs before on coding best practices in MATLAB and they have always generated a lot of great feedback. I recently came across a language-neutral list of best practices for scientific computing, written by Greg Wilson of Software Carpentry.... read more >>
