Looking Backwards: 2006 in Review
This week, I continue looking backward, with a retrospective of all of the File Exchange Picks of the Week for the 2006.
Also, this week we would like to officially welcome the newest member of the MATLAB Central family, MATLAB Answers. In this forum, you can ask or answer MATLAB-related questions, vote for best answers, and search for and comment on existing answers. It's off to a great start, and promises to be a useful repository of information. And it's fun: you can build a "reputation" by contributing to the forum! Give it a try and let us hear about your experiences with MATLAB Answers.
You can read the original blog posts for each of these picks by clicking on the names of the files and following the links to the "Pick of the Week" tag. As always, your comments are welcome.
