- Several recent postings have asked about MATLAB to Fortran and
- MATLAB to C translation. The closest thing we have is a new
- "Code Generation" facility that takes SIMULINK blocks and
- generates C code for use in real-time simulation, control and
- signal processing hardware, including equipment from a Germany
- company, dSpace. This amounts to translation from a limited subset
- of MATLAB-esse to C.
-
- The facilities available with other M-systems like Mathematica,
- Maple and MACSYMA, will translate single arithmetic expressions
- in those languages to Fortran, C or Tex. Since these systems can
- generate lengthly arithmetic expressions, such translation is
- useful. But there is no translation of larger code fragments
- or complete subprograms.
