MATLAB vs Octave is the most crucial battle in
the statistics industry. It is quite overwhelming
for the statistics students to differentiate
between them. Even some of the statistics
students may not select either one between these
two statistics language Here in this
Presentation Ill clear all your doubts on the
comparison between MATLAB vs Octave. Lets get
started with an overview of both of these
languages.
OVERVIEW

Matlab stands for the Matrix Laboratory. It is
one of the most potent statistics programming
languages in the world. It is used for technical
computation, all because of its powerful
performance. Like no other programming language
in the world, it supports the imperative
procedural and object-oriented programming
language. Thats why it is considered as the
multi-paradigm programming language. If I talk
about the history of Matlab, then it was invented
by Cleve Moler. It is the property of Math Works.
In other words, Matlab is commercially
distributed by MathWorks. MATLAB has a vast
potential, that is why it is widely used in
different aspects of our life, i.e., math, and
computation, algorithm development.
Visualization, simulation, prototyping, and many
more. The primary intention behind the
innovation of MATLAB was to have easy access to
the matrix software. MATLAB was released in the
year 1984 by MathWorks. The source code of the
MATLAB is written in three different languages,
i.e., C, C, and Java.
MATLAB

Octave is one of the most popular high-level
programming languages. It is also known as GNU
Octave. It is widely used for numerical
computations. The reason is it helps to solve the
linear and non-linear problems numerically. It is
available in almost 19 languages it means that
most of the countries use it in their native
languages. If youre looking to have the free
alternative to MATLAB, then here is the best
alternative to MATLAB is Octave. Octave is a
mind-blowing programming language. It also has
some features of structured programming
language. Octave is quite awesome because, like
no other programming languages, it loads the
modules dynamically. It makes Octave quite faster
than other programming languages. It is also
having the interpreter based on open GL graphics.
That is quite handy for creating plots, graphs,
and charts. It offers the best in class GUI for
the end-users.

OPERATORS
Matlab doesnt have the support for
auto-increment and assignment operators. On the
other hand, Octave has the proper support for
auto-increment and assignment operators like i
and i.
8
RAM USAGE
If you want to run Matlab on your machine, then
you need to have more RAM as compared with to run
Octave on the same computer.
9
COST
MATLAB offers various packages for different
needs. You can select either one as per your
requirements. On the other hand, Octave is a free
programming language. Anyone can use it without
paying a single penny.
10
EASE OF USE
MATLAB offers an extensive set of tools in the
toolbox to perform various tasks in MATLAB. These
tools are quite handy and ready to perform some
special functions. On the other hand, Octave
depends on the syntax to perform any task in
Octave, which makes Octave quite slower than
MATLAB.
11
BOOLEAN EXPRESSION
When we compare boolean values in MATLAB, then
Matlab provides the error in syntax format, i.e.,
its not the supported form. On the other hand,
Octave responds to the boolean values by ans0.
12
FILE EXECUTION
MATLAB also supports the command line that is
used to execute the file in the directory. On the
other hand, Octave also supports the same thing,
but if you are using an old version of Octave,
then you may not find this facility.
13
EMPTY FILE USAGE
While working on MATLAB, you cant load the empty
file. But if you are working with Octave, you can
load the empty file without any hassle. It makes
is quite better than Matlab.
14
PRINT FUNCTION
If you want to print on the screen using MATLAB,
then you can only use fprintf. It is the command
that used to print the result on the screen in
Matlab. On the other hand, if you want to print
the screen, then you can use both print and
fprintf in Octave.
15
USER INTERFACE
MATLAB is a commercial product of MathsWorks,
i.e., it is having the best in class user
interface for programmers. On the other hand, in
the earlier version of Octave there was a lack of
user interface, but nowadays there Octave is
continuously improving its user interface. Octave
has the default interface after the 4.0 version.
16
COMPILER
Matlab is having the best among the best
compiler. It is known as the Just-In-Time
compiler as the name suggests that this compiler
is quite faster. It allows the acceleration of
for-loops with certain restrictions. On the
other hand, Octave doesnt have the JIT compiler.
That makes Octave quite slower than Matlab. But
to make your Octave program faster, you can
vectorize your code,.

compiler. It is known as the Just-In-Time

for-loops with certain restrictions. On the
other hand, Octave doesnt have the JIT compiler.
That makes Octave quite slower than Matlab. But
to make your Octave program faster, you can

18
ONLINE SUPPORT
MATLAB is a licensed programming language. It
means that you can find the best support for
MATLAB. Matlab offers online support to the
programmers as well as provides tutorials,
documentation, examples, answers, blog, and
community support. On the other hand, with Octave
you can also find some support in the form of
documentation and online community where you can
solve all your issues with the help of fellow
programmers.
19
CONCLUSION
It is quite easy to say that Octave is quite
better than Octave. The reason is that it is free
to use, and its programs also compatible with
MATLAB. But here is the fact, that restricts me
to consider it best between MATLAB vs Octave is
it is still lack of functionality as compared to
MATLAB. We can also help you with MATLAB
assignment help and MATLAB homework help. We have
the statistics experts who can provide you the
best assignment help at nominal charges.
