I've been a Matlab user for years and have recently started using Python with matplotlib and NumPy for most of my work. The only thing I found that is still lacking is a 3D capability in matplotlib. I was trying to visualize a hill climbing algorithm and I couldn't find anything comparable to Mat

I have a suspicion it is the collaborative effort that is the problem here -- I try to use Python whenever possible for engineering/numerical analysis, but the established industry standard (for most disciplines of engineering) is still MATLAB. Although Python is arguably better in most respects,

I'm afraid I can't be very helpful to you, but you could be most helpful to some of us. Can you elaborate on what specifically you found difficult? In some circles Python is regarded as a direct competitor to Matlab. Your preference for Python for "other things than standard mathematical work" in

Calling Python from Matlab

2006-04-15 Thread Carl
I am desperately looking for a way to call Python from Matlab. I have become used to Python's rich syntax and large number of libraries, and feel ridiculously clumsy being stuck with Matlab's rather restricted facilities for doing other things than standard mathematical work. Does anyone know of g
