The all-community-solutions view shows the ID of each solution, and you can click on the link to go to the solution.
The preferred-community-solutions view does not show the solution IDs and does not link to the solutions. As far as I can tell, there is no way to get from that view to the solutions. If, for example, you want to go to the solution to leave a comment there, you can't.

Hi cody fellows,
I already solved more than 500 problems -months ago, last july if I remember well- and get this scholar badge, but then it suddenly disappeared a few weeks later. I then solved a few more problems and it reappeared.
Now I observed it disappeared once more a few days ago.
Have you also noticed this erratic behavior of the scholar badge ? Is it normal and / or intentional ? If not, how to explain it ? (deleted problems ?)
Cheers,
Nicolas
I'm seeing solution maps shown with low-contrast gray colors instead of the correct symbol colors. I have observed this using both Safari and Chrome. Screenshot:
Here is a screenshot of a Cody problem that I just created. The math rendering is poor. (I have since edited the problem to remove the math formatting.)
Are there any code restrictions for programming Cody solutions? I could not find anything mentioned at https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/content/cody/about.html, other than toolbox functions not being available.
Hey everyone,
I’m currently working with MATLAB R2025b and using the MQTT blocks from the Industrial Communication Toolbox inside Simulink. I’ve run into an issue that’s driving me a bit crazy, and I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if I’m missing something obvious.
Here’s what’s happening:
- I open the MQTT Configure block.
- I fill out all the required fields — Broker address, Port, Client ID, Username, and Password.
- When I click Test Connection, it says “Connection established successfully.” So far so good.
- Then I click Apply, close the dialog, set the topic name, and try to run the simulation.
- At this point, I get the following error:Caused by: Invalid value for 'ClientID', 'Username' or 'Password'.
- When I reopen the MQTT config block, I notice that the Password field is empty again — even though I definitely entered it before and the connection test worked earlier.
It seems like Simulink is somehow not saving the password after hitting Apply, which leads to the authentication error during simulation.
Has anyone else faced this? Is this a bug in R2025b, or do I need to configure something differently to make the password persist?
Would really appreciate any insights, workarounds, or confirmations from anyone who has used MQTT in Simulink recently.
Thanks in advance!
Inspired by @xingxingcui's post about old MATLAB versions and @유장's post about an old Easter egg, I thought it might be fun to share some MATLAB-Old-Timer Stories™.
Back in the early 90s, MATLAB had been ported to MacOS, but there were some interesting wrinkles. One that kept me earning my money as a computer lab tutor was that MATLAB required file names to follow Windows standards - no spaces or other special characters. But on a Mac, nothing stopped you from naming your script "hello world - 123.m". The problem came when you tried to run it. MATLAB was essentially doing an eval on the script name, assuming the file name would follow Windows (and MATLAB) naming rules.
So now imagine a lab full of students taking a university course. As is common in many universities, the course was given a numeric code. For whatever historical reason, my school at that time was also using numeric codes for the departments. Despite being told the rules for naming scripts, many students would default to something like "26.165 - 1.1" for problem one on HW1 for the intro applied math course 26.165.
No matter what they did in their script, when they ran it, MATLAB would just say "ans = 25.0650".
Nothing brings you more MATLAB-god credibility as a student tutor than walking over to someone's computer, taking one look at their output, saying "rename your file", and walking away like a boss.
It was 2010 when I was a sophomore in university. I chose to learn MATLAB because of a mathematical modeling competition, and the university provided MATLAB 7.0, a very classic release. To get started, I borrowed many MATLAB books from the library and began by learning simple numerical calculations, plotting, and solving equations. Gradually I was drawn in by MATLAB’s powerful capabilities and became interested; I often used it as a big calculator for fun. That version didn’t have MATLAB Live Script; instead it used MATLAB Notebook (M-Book), which allowed MATLAB functions to be used directly within Microsoft Word, and it also had the Symbolic Math Toolbox’s MuPAD interactive environment. These were later gradually replaced by Live Scripts introduced in R2016a. There are many similar examples...
Out of curiosity, I still have screenshots on my computer showing MATLAB 7.0 running compatibly. I’d love to hear your thoughts?
Do you have a swag signed by Brian Douglas? He does!
For some time now, this has been bugging me - so I thought to gather some more feedback/information/opinions on this.
What would you classify Recursion? As a loop or as a vectorized section of code?
For context, this query occured to me while creating Cody problems involving strict (so to speak) vectorization - (Everyone is more than welcome to check my recent Cody questions).
To make problems interesting and/or difficult, I (and other posters) ban functions and functionalities - such as for loops, while loops, if-else statements, arrayfun() and the rest of the fun() family functions. However, some of the solutions including the reference solution I came up with for my latest problem, contained recursion.
I am rather divided on how to categorize it. What do you think?
I came across this fun video from @Christoper Lum, and I have to admit—his MathWorks swag collection is pretty impressive! He’s got pieces I even don’t have.
So now I’m curious… what MathWorks swag do you have hiding in your office or closet?
- Which one is your favorite?
- Which ones do you want to add to your collection?
Show off your swag and share it with the community! 🚀
I saw this YouTube short on my feed: What is MATLab?
I was mostly mesmerized by the minecraft gameplay going on in the background.
Found it funny, thought i'd share.

- Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matlab is. You have to see it for yourself.
And also later :

- The Matlab is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can feel it when you go to work [...]
The Architect
- The first Matlab I designed was quite naturally perfect. It was a work of art. Flawless. Sublime.

Hello MATLAB Central community,
My name is Yann. And I love MATLAB. I also love Python ... 🐍 (I know, not the place for that).
I recently decided to go down the rabbit hole of AI. So I started benchmarking deep learning frameworks on basic examples. Here is a recording of my experiment:
Happy to engage in the debate. What do you think?
Hi,
I have some problem, I want to upload my data that sample rate at 500HZ, every sevral seconds.
My data include 12 bytes, and it measure 500HZ, for example for 15 seconds I coolect 15*500*12 = 84KB.
Can I upload this data to ThingSpeak? It is possible to use with Free acount (I am student and this is my project)
How can help me..
I designed and stitched this last week! It uses a total of 20 DMC thread colors, and I frequently stitched with two colors at once to create the gradient.
Large Language Models (LLMs) with MATLAB was updated again today to support the newly released OpenAI models GPT-5, GPT-5 mini, GPT-5 nano, GPT-5 chat, o3, and o4-mini. When you create an openAIChat object, set the ModelName name-value argument to "gpt-5", "gpt-5-mini", "gpt-5-nano", "gpt-5-chat-latest", "o4-mini", or "o3".
This is version 4.4.0 of this free MATLAB add-on that lets you interact with LLMs on MATLAB. The release notes are at Release v4.4.0: Support for GPT-5, o3, o4-mini · matlab-deep-learning/llms-with-matlab
Hey cody fellows :-) !
I recently created two problem groups, but as you can see I struggle to set their cover images :
What is weird given :
- I already did it successfully twice in the past for my previous groups ;
- If you take one problem specifically, Problem 60984. Mesh the icosahedron for instance, you can normally see the icon of the cover image in the top right hand corner, can't you ?
- I always manage to set cover images to my contributions (mostly in the filexchange).
I already tried several image formats, included .png 4/3 ratio, but still the cover images don't set.
Could you please help me to correctly set my cover images ?
Thank you.
Nicolas
