MATLAB

1960

The idea for MATLAB was based on his 1960s PhD thesis.

1967

He developed MATLAB's initial linear algebra programming in 1967 with his one-time thesis advisor, George Forsythe.

1970

This was followed by Fortran code for linear equations in 1971. The first early version of MATLAB was completed in the late 1970s.

1979

The software was disclosed to the public for the first time in February 1979 at the Naval Postgraduate School in California.

1980

Moler would leave copies at universities he visited and the software developed a strong following in the math departments of university campuses. In the 1980s, Cleve Moler met John N.

The first MATLAB sale was the following year, when Nick Trefethen from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology bought ten copies. By the end of the 1980s, several hundred copies of MATLAB had been sold to universities for student use.

1984

John Little and programmer Steve Bangert re-programmed MATLAB in C, created the MATLAB programming language, and developed features for toolboxes. ===Commercial development=== MATLAB was first released as a commercial product in 1984 at the Automatic Control Conference in Las Vegas.

1987

Version 3 was released in 1987.

1990

Johnson in the 1990s. In 2000, MathWorks added a Fortran-based library for linear algebra in MATLAB 6, replacing the software's original LINPACK and EISPACK subroutines that were in C.

2004

MATLAB's Parallel Computing Toolbox was released at the 2004 Supercomputing Conference and support for graphics processing units (GPUs) was added to it in 2010. ===Recent history=== Some especially large changes to the software were made with version 8 in 2012.

2014

Since 2014 increasing two-way interfacing with Python was being added. Libraries written in Perl, Java, ActiveX or .NET can be directly called from MATLAB, and many MATLAB libraries (for example XML or SQL support) are implemented as wrappers around Java or ActiveX libraries.

2016

By 2016, MATLAB had introduced several technical and user interface improvements, including the MATLAB Live Editor notebook, and other features. == Syntax == The MATLAB application is built around the MATLAB programming language.

2020

An additional package, Simulink, adds graphical multi-domain simulation and model-based design for dynamic and embedded systems. As of 2020, MATLAB has more than 4 million users worldwide.
