Title: Does anybody uses MatLab?

hello I am improving my math skills, and I'm starting to use MatLab does anybody wants to remotely teach me.  [:)]

I've heard of it - quite a few people are interfacing it with the FlightGear open-sauce flight simulator to simulate Flight Data Models - but I've never seen or used it myself.  I would imagine that there must be a few tutorials around on the web.

There is a huge amount of data on MatLab for a whole variety of applications. I didn't answer this earlier because I have not used it (I use SystemVu which has similar features dedicated more to the applications I need) and it is quite expensive unless you are a student or in an educational establishment. It is a very good and versatile tool.

If you do a lot of pure maths and need equation symbolic manipulation then take a look at Maple.
